Abstract:
A modeling system is provided which is configured to retrieve from the non-volatile memory the 3D virtual model of an object; define a domain of a parametric surface; project feature curves in the 3D virtual model into the domain of the parametric surface to generate a mapping based on the 3D virtual model and including a plurality of parametric curves; divide the plurality of parametric curves into horizontal and vertical feature curves; extend each of the horizontal feature and vertical feature curves; construct a horizontal interpolant connecting the extended horizontal feature curves; construct a vertical interpolant connecting the extended vertical feature curves; fit the horizontal and vertical interpolants as coordinates of a map to a new parametric domain; and compose the inverse of the map to the new parametric domain with the parametric surface to create a new parametric surface containing the feature curves as isoparametric curves.
