  • Abstract
    The generation of smooth surfaces from a mesh of three-dimensional data points is an important problem in geometric modeling. Apart from the pure construction of these curves and surfaces, the analysis of their quality is equally important in the design and manufacturing process. Generalized focal surfaces are presented as a new surface interrogation tool
