The automatic shape description of solids is a problem of interest in manufacturing
engineering, amongst other related areas. This description can be either geometrical or …

The decomposition of solids is a problem of interest in areas of engineering such as feature
recognition or manufacturing planning. The problem can be stated as finding a set of smaller …

Surface reconstruction from cross cuts usually requires curve reconstruction from planar
noisy point samples. The output curves must form a possibly disconnected 1-manifold for the …

Surface reconstruction from noisy point samples must take into consideration the stochastic
nature of the sample. In other words, geometric algorithms reconstructing the surface or …

Reverse Engineering (RE) requires representing with free forms (NURBS, Spline, Bézier) a
real surface S_0 S 0 which has been point-sampled. To serve this purpose, we have …

Purpose–Curve fitting from unordered noisy point samples is needed for surface
reconstruction in many applications. In the literature, several approaches have been …

Determining hydro-mechanical properties of porous materials present a challenge because
they exhibit a more complex behaviour than their continuous counterparts. The geometrical …
