A History of Curves and Surfaces in Computer-Aided Geometric Design

Original: A History of Curves and Surfaces in Computer Aided Geometric Design [pdf]

A lecture document tracing the history of curves and surfaces in computer-aided geometric design is circulating among engineers and math enthusiasts. The PDF, hosted by Peking University, covers the development of spline techniques that underpin modern CAD software, automotive and aircraft design. Readers are sharing it as a technical reference on the mathematical foundations of geometric modeling.

Why now: The material appeals to engineers and mathematicians interested in the historical roots of the spline mathematics used in modern CAD systems.
