Surface lofting and smoothing with skeletal-lines

S Bedi, GW Vickers - Computer aided geometric design, 1989 - Elsevier
A method of surface definition and smoothing using a set of three-dimensional skeletal-lines
is given. The skeletal-lines represent the essential features of a surface and can be
individually smoothed using the first divided difference. The modified skeletal-lines are
automatically generated by back substitution from the smoothed first divided difference lines.
In this way a surface can be defined and smoothly adjusted through a set of sparse,
irregular, inconsistent data.
