Lecture 9 Blending Surfaces 9.1 Examples and motivation Blending surfaces, providing a smooth connection between various primary or functional sur- faces, are very common in CAD. Examples include blending surfaces between Fuselage and wings of airplanes Propeller or turbine blade and hub Bulbous bow and ship hull Primary faces of solid models

Lecture 2 Differential geometry of curves 2.1 Definition of curves 2.1.1 Plane curves Implicit curves f(, y)=0 Example:x2+y2=a2 It is difficult to trace implicit curves It is easy to check if a point lies on the curve Multi-valued and closed curves can be represented
