Most of the existing literatures investigating the multiresolution for B-spline curves and surfaces are concentrated on open ones. In this paper, we focus on the multiresolution representations and editing of closed B-spline curves and surfaces using wavelets. A repetition approach is adopted for the multiresolution analysis of closed B-spline curves and surfaces. Since the closed curve or surface itself is periodic, it can overcome the drawback brought by the repetition method, i.e. introducing the discontinuities at the boundaries. Based on the models at different multiresolution levels, the multiresolution editing methods of closed curves and surfaces are introduced. Users can edit the overall shape of a closed one while preserving its details, or change its details without affecting its overall shape.展开更多

The wavelet decomposition and reconstruction of quasi uniform bicubic B spline surfaces are described in detail. A method is introduced to approximate a B spline surface by a quasi uniform one. An error control approach for wavelet based fairing is suggested. Samples are given to show the feasibility of the algorithms presented in this paper. The practice showed that the wavelet based fairing is better than energy based one in case where the number of vertices of the B spline surface is greater than 1000. The quantitative variance of the approximation error in accordance with the change of decomposition levels needs to be further explored.展开更多
