Abstract
Lane-Riesenfeld's subdivision schemes provide a versatile tool for generating smooth and detailed curves and surfaces, making them valuable assets in computer graphics and geometric modeling. These schemes offer flexibility in controlling the regularity of the limit function by adjusting some parameters. In this paper, we propose a nonlinear modification of these algorithms for piecewise smooth functions. The new algorithm converges to piecewise smooth limit functions maintaining the high regularity of Lane-Riesenfeld's subdivision schemes in smooth zones. The practical results presented show a very good numerical behavior of the proposed algorithms.
期刊介绍:
The journal Computer Aided Geometric Design is for researchers, scholars, and software developers dealing with mathematical and computational methods for the description of geometric objects as they arise in areas ranging from CAD/CAM to robotics and scientific visualization. The journal publishes original research papers, survey papers and with quick editorial decisions short communications of at most 3 pages. The primary objects of interest are curves, surfaces, and volumes such as splines (NURBS), meshes, subdivision surfaces as well as algorithms to generate, analyze, and manipulate them. This journal will report on new developments in CAGD and its applications, including but not restricted to the following:
-Mathematical and Geometric Foundations-
Curve, Surface, and Volume generation-
CAGD applications in Numerical Analysis, Computational Geometry, Computer Graphics, or Computer Vision-
Industrial, medical, and scientific applications.
The aim is to collect and disseminate information on computer aided design in one journal. To provide the user community with methods and algorithms for representing curves and surfaces. To illustrate computer aided geometric design by means of interesting applications. To combine curve and surface methods with computer graphics. To explain scientific phenomena by means of computer graphics. To concentrate on the interaction between theory and application. To expose unsolved problems of the practice. To develop new methods in computer aided geometry.
