Abstract
A comparative study of two methods for the automatic fairing of B-Splines curves is made. The methods discussed are the Eck/Hadenfeld algorithm and the Pigounakis/Sapidis/Kaklis method. By using existing datastores from the Tribon Initial Design module LINES test were carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of the two algorithms. The work was carried out as part of the European Union funded project FAIRSHAPE (Automatic FAIRing and SHAPE-Preserving Methodologies for CAD/CAM.
