Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for constructing a trim-free T-spline surface and control mesh for a NURBS surface control grid of a B-rep face; modifying the trim-free T-spline control mesh to align the trim-free T-spline surface boundary with a functional trimming curve; and redefining one or more faces in the modified trim-free T-spline control mesh that is adjacent to the trimming curve as a variable knot spline face.
