Description

This book is based on the sixth international conference on the subject organised by the IMA. A number of international authorities were invited to present papers on surface mathematics, covering computer-based methods for the construction, representation, and manipulation of complicated surfaces. the conference. This book is intended for mathematicians, computer scientists, CAD practitioners, engineers, and others who are developing or using computer-aided descriptions of surfaces.
