Abstract:
Modern architecture uses more and more free form surfaces which differ completely from classical constructions and are much more alike those which have been used extensively in aerospace or automotive engineering. Moreover, artistic construction surfaces are shaped very often in physical models, a situation which is similar to automotive industry which starts new designs with physical models. For example, a new design of a car body consists of a clay model and its geometry information comes from...     »
