Abstract

We propose two algorithms to generate (1) polygonal meshes and (2) developable surface patches far generalized cylinders defined by contours of discrete curves. To solve the contour blending problem of generalized cylinder, the presented algorithms have adopted the algorithm and related properties of LIDM (linear interpolation by direction map) that interpolate geometric shapes based on direction map merging and group scaling operations. Proposed methods are fast to compute and easy to implement.
