| About the Book:
|
| The aim of this book is to provide a good foundation of computer aided geometric design to students who are doing undergraduate courses in engineering, especially mechanical engineering , computer science, geometric modeling, and CAD/CAM.
The present edition is organized in three parts:
Part-1 deals with the basics of differential geometry of curves and surfaces, a good understanding of which is an essential pre – requisite to what follows in Part-II.
Part-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 a the end of each chapter. |
