  • Abstract
    A method for computing isovalue or contour surfaces of a trivariate function is discussed. The input data are values of the trivariate function, Fijk, at the cuberille grid points (xi, yj, zk ), and the output of a collection of triangles representing the surface consisting of all points where F(x,y, z) is a constant value. The method is a modification that is intended to correct a problem with a previous method
