Computer Aided Geometric Design by Robert E. Barnhill,Richard F. Riesenfeld Pdf

Computer Aided Geometric Design covers the proceedings of the First International Conference on Computer Aided Geometric Design, held at the University of Utah on March 18-21, 1974. This book is composed of 15 chapters and starts with reviews of the properties of surface patch equation and the use of computers in geometrical design. The next chapters deal with the principles of smooth interpolation over triangles and without twist constraints, as well as the graphical representation of surfaces over triangles and rectangles. These topics are followed by discussions of the B-spline curves and surfaces; mathematical and practical possibilities of UNISURF; nonlinear splines; and some piecewise polynomial alternatives to splines under tension. Other chapters explore the smooth parametric surfaces, the space curve as a folded edge, and the interactive computer graphics application of the parametric bi-cubic surface to engineering design problems. The final chapters look into the three-dimensional human-machine communication and a class of local interpolating splines. This book will prove useful to design engineers.

Basics of Computer Aided Geometric Design by M. Ganesh Pdf

The aim of the book is to provide a good foundation of Computer-Aided Geometric Design to students who are doing under-graduate courses in engineering, especially Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science, Geometric Modeling and CAD/CAM. This book is organized in two parts. Part-I deals with the basics of differential geometry of curves and surface, a good understanding of which is essential prerequisite to what follows in the Part-II. Part-II is devoted entirely to the geometric designs of curves and surfaces, which are used in the development of computer graphics and profiles and hulls of ships, aircraft wings, satellites (to name a few large scale products) as also telephones, mobile phones, fancy flower vases (to name a few small-scale products). Concepts introduced are illustrated with examples, which are completely worked out. A list of problems is also given at the end of each chapter

Shape Interrogation for Computer Aided Design and Manufacturing by Nicholas M. Patrikalakis,Takashi Maekawa Pdf

Shape interrogation is the process of extraction of information from a geometric model. It is a fundamental component of Computer Aided Design and Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems. The authors focus on shape interrogation of geometric models bounded by free-form surfaces. Free-form surfaces, also called sculptured surfaces, are widely used in the bodies of ships, automobiles and aircraft, which have both functionality and attractive shape requirements. Many electronic devices as well as consumer products are designed with aesthetic shapes, which involve free-form surfaces. This book provides the mathematical fundamentals as well as algorithms for various shape interrogation methods including nonlinear polynomial solvers, intersection problems, differential geometry of intersection curves, distance functions, curve and surface interrogation, umbilics and lines of curvature, geodesics, and offset curves and surfaces. This book will be of interest both to graduate students and professionals.

Shape Preserving Representations in Computer-aided Geometric Design by Juan M. Peña Pdf

Presents recent important advances in the field of computer-aided geometric design in the study of shape-preserving representations of curves and surfaces. The volume's dozen papers are organized into five sections on: shape preserving representations of curves, optimality of B-bases, blossoming and geometric approach, shape preserving representations of surfaces, and trigonometric bases for the representation of curves and surfaces. The index spans the admissible (in design algorithms for spline curves) to the weak Chebyshev space and system. Contributors hail from six European countries.

Handbook of Geometric Computing by Eduardo Bayro Corrochano Pdf

Many computer scientists, engineers, applied mathematicians, and physicists use geometry theory and geometric computing methods in the design of perception-action systems, intelligent autonomous systems, and man-machine interfaces. This handbook brings together the most recent advances in the application of geometric computing for building such systems, with contributions from leading experts in the important fields of neuroscience, neural networks, image processing, pattern recognition, computer vision, uncertainty in geometric computations, conformal computational geometry, computer graphics and visualization, medical imagery, geometry and robotics, and reaching and motion planning. For the first time, the various methods are presented in a comprehensive, unified manner. This handbook is highly recommended for postgraduate students and researchers working on applications such as automated learning; geometric and fuzzy reasoning; human-like artificial vision; tele-operation; space maneuvering; haptics; rescue robots; man-machine interfaces; tele-immersion; computer- and robotics-aided neurosurgery or orthopedics; the assembly and design of humanoids; and systems for metalevel reasoning.
