Swept Surface

Randolf Schultz — Thu, 01 Mar 2007 09:47:05 -0000

Swept surface (as opposed to swept curve).
This object hierarchy demonstrates how to sweep a
surface (not just a curve) and thus create cap
surfaces of arbitrary shape.
Hint: Play with the control points of the NPatch...

Oloid - final

Randolf Schultz — Sat, 13 Jan 2007 08:29:56 -0000

This is the final, polished, nice looking version of the Oloid.

Skin from cloned curves

Randolf Schultz — Sun, 17 Dec 2006 17:41:04 -0000

This object demonstrates the abilities of the Clone object to present a Skin with a complete correctly mirrored and ordered set of parameter curves.

Oloid - first attempt

Randolf Schultz — Mon, 06 Nov 2006 21:21:54 -0000

This is my first attempt on an Oloid (shape invented
by Paul Schatz).

16 point B-Spline torus

Randolf Schultz — Fri, 06 Oct 2006 07:49:48 -0000

Is it possible to describe a torus as 16 control
point B-Spline surface?
Here is my attempt.
Note that the parameter curve for the Revolve
object is scaled!

Clone of Clones

Randolf Schultz — Sat, 15 Jul 2006 07:31:29 -0000

This object demonstrates the Clones ability to
clone Clones. Erm. See for yourself. :)

MetaBall Plane 2

Randolf Schultz — Sat, 08 Apr 2006 07:54:05 -0000

Second edition of the MetaBall plane, this version
features a more advanced/interesting empennage.

Periodic Skin

Randolf Schultz — Wed, 29 Mar 2006 12:11:37 -0000

A skin object in a configuration, that allows it to form a
closed (periodic) surface of order 3. To achieve this,
the first two parameter curves are identical to the last
two and the knot vector type is B-Spline. Note that in
this configuration no curves are interpolated by the skin
surface.

Teapot

Randolf Schultz — Fri, 10 Feb 2006 11:56:10 -0000

The famous Utah teapot converted from RIB.

Octagon

Randolf Schultz — Sat, 04 Feb 2006 04:24:35 -0000

A regular octagon as piecewise linear NURBS curve.
