A robust and efficient algorithm for trimming both local and global self-intersections in offset curves and surfaces is presented. Our scheme is based on the derivation of a rational distance map between the original curve or surface and its offset. By solving a bivariate polynomial equation for an offset curve or a system of three polynomial equations for an offset surface, all local and global self-intersection...
We present an efficient and robust algorithm for computing the perspective silhouette of the boundary of a general swept volume. We also construct the topology of connected components of the silhouette. At each instant t, a three-dimensional object moving along a trajectory touches the envelope surface of its swept volume along a characteristic curve Kt. The same instance of the moving object has...
