Geometric Functions in Computer Aided Geometric Design

Información del producto

Óscar Ruiz - It Is Usual That Existing Material On Computer Aided Geometric Design Oscillates Between Over-Simplification For Progra mmers And Practitioners And Over Formalism For Scientific Or Academic Readers. The First Type of Publications Suppresses The Taxonomy And Properties of The Mathematical Concepts Discussed When Seeking Straightforward Notation And Procedures. The Second Type of Materials In Thorough In The Mathematical Concepts At The Expense of Increasingly Complicated Notation And Sacrifice of Clear Procedures For The Reader. This Book Intends to be a Compromise Between The Aforementioned Extremes. It Recalls Basic Concepts On Functions Relations Transformations Matrices And Groups And Makes Evident Their Impact In The Engineering Properties of Projections Rotations Translations Perspectives And So On. The Material Is of Interest For Computer Scientists And Electrical Mechanical Production Mathematical And Physics Engineers. In Particular It Gives Valuable Insight Into Robotics Computer Vision Design Manufacturing Kinematics And Dynamics From a Practical Point of View While Keeping Contact With The Underlying Decisive Mathematical Properties of The Objects And Transformations Handled.
