pbk. Second Edition. Contents I Differential Geometry 1 Theory of Curves 2 Theory of Surface II Computer Aided Geometric Design 3 Bezier Curves 4 Bezier Surfaces 5 Spline Curves 6 Spline Surfaces III Advanced Topice in Computer Aided Gemetric Design 7 Rational B-Spline Curves and Surfaces 8 Certain Assorted Methods IndexThe 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 CADCAM 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-IIPart-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 Part-III deals with certain useful generalizations of the earlier concepts like rational Bezier and B-spline curves and surfaces and advanced techniques like blending and corner-cutting Concepts introduced are illustrated with examples which are completely worked out A list of problems is also given at the end of each chapter 213 pp.…
