Abstract | Surface skinning is a surface generation method that uses a set of given cross-sectional curves, and it is widely used in free-form surface design. In the B-spline surface skinning, the given B-spline curves should be compatible, that is, the curves should have the same degree and knot sequence. While making the curves compatible, lots of control vertices are generated. Although T-spline surface skinning methods have been introduced to reduce the number of control vertices, the T-spline skinning method that was proposed by Nasri et al. (2012) can generate a wiggled surface when the given B-spline curves are not sufficiently compatible. The intermediate cross sections that were introduced for T-spline surface skinning cannot preserve the shape of the given B-spline curves if the adjacent B-spline curves do not have sufficient common knots, and it can cause wiggles on the surface. In this paper, we analyze this issue and suggest a modified method to remove the wiggles on the skinned T-spline surface. Furthermore, we propose an algorithm for shape preservation of the surface. Our approach is verified by suggesting some examples compared to the Nasri et al. (2012)’s method. |
