Geometric Description and Generation of Surfaces.

Abstract

A geometric technique for the description and generation of arbitrary doubly-curved surfaces is given. The technique is based on a curve generating algorithm. A surface is then determined to be the set of surface curves defined by a set of generator curves. Finally, some features of surfaces of this type are examined.
