Abstract

TitlePN-surfaces for blending applications
KeywordsGeometrical modeling, surfaces with rational offsets, blendings
AbstractGeneral theory of PN-surfaces (surfaces with rational offsets) is developed using dual Laguerre geometry and a universal rational parametrization of the Blaschke cylinder. This approach allows to construct new PN-blendings between two natural quadrics in many positions, and demostrate improved shape and lower parametrization degree than earlier proposed canal surface solutions. The construction can be extended via inversion to blendings between natural quadrics and Dupin cyclides as well.



The Institute is named after the famous Austrian mathematician Johann Radon (1887-1956)
