Abstract :
In this paper, we present an approach to modeling nonrigid transformations (equivalently, nonrigid surfaces) by homogeneous transformations, and we illustrate the utility of this approach by describing how we used it to study sequences of static nonrigid motions of a membrane. Experimental results are presented
