Abstract

An interactive technique for integrating surface inspection with fairing is proposed and demonstrated for quadrilateral meshes. This technique works by creating discrete curvature tensors for each mesh point, interpolating this data to create a finer mesh for inspection, allowing the user to change any curvature information and then regenerating the mesh using the new information.
