In the digital design process, surface modeling is required to be as accurate as possible for the effective support of production as well as for numerical performance analysis. This article reviews the geometric modeling techniques, based on non-uniform rational B-spline (NURBS). The NURBS surface can be readily translated into ma ny CAD/CAM packages (Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacturing), which is more convenient for visualization performance and finite element methods.
