About the Book

The state of the art of geometric modeling is described and discussed in this volume, based on the international conference held in Blaubeuren, Germany, in October 1996. The contributions cover the most relevant topics in the field at an advanced level and are authored by leading experts from universities, CAD system vendors, and users of geometric modelers. The book is organized into parts dealing with: mathematical tools for geometric modeling, including variational design, particle systems, and interpolation and approximation methods; representations in solid modeling and conversion problems; requirements to be met by a modeler for the automotive industry; and applications like automated assembly. The readability and clarity of the text is supported by fine illustrations.
