G^1 hole filling with S-patches made easy
share
S-patches have been around for 30 years, but they are seldom used, and are considered more of a mathematical curiosity than a practical surface representation. In this article a method is presented for automatically creating S-patches of any degree or any number of sides, suitable for inclusion in a curve network with tangential continuity to the adjacent surfaces. The presentation aims at making the implementation straightforward; a few examples conclude the paper.
