Overview
Completely updated to include the most recent developments in the field, Geometric Modeling, Third Edition, like the two previous editions, emphasizes clarity and thoroughness in the mathematical development of its subjects. It is written in a style that is free of jargon of special applications, while integrating the three important functions of geometric modeling: to represent elementary forms (curves, surfaces, and solids), to shape and assemble these into complex forms, and to determine geometric properties and relationships. With hundreds of illustrations, this unique book appeals to the reader’s visual and intuitive skills in a way that makes it easier to understand its more abstract concepts.
