Maps, Surfaces, and Shapes
Robust Modeling of Constant Mean Curvature Surfaces
A new method for modeling discrete constant mean curvature (CMC) surfaces. The method is capable of modeling CMC surfaces with fixed or free boundaries and is robust with respect to input mesh quality and topology changes.
