C2-Free-form Surfaces of degree (3,5)


The paper "C2-free-form surfaces of degree (3,5)" by Jörg Peters introduces new techniques for modeling low degree, smooth free-form surfaces of unrestricted patch layout. In particular, surfaces that are C2 after reparametrization can be built from tensor-product Bezier of spline patches of degree (3,3) and (3,d+2); at extraordinary points, these surfaces have the flexibility of C2 splines of total degree d>0. The particular choice, d=3, yields more thatn n+5 vectore-valued degree of freedom where n patches join. The techniques generalize to Gk constructions of free-form surfcaes of degree (k+1,d+2k-2).

The project shall contain an implementation and evaluation of the above technique.
