DOUBLE CURVATURE SURFACES ADAPTATION USING DEVELOPABLE SURFACES

Questions related with the developable surfaces theory have had a constant attention from the point of view of the Geometry. In recent years the employment of free forms and double curvature surfaces in Architecture have reported a noticeable development and the need of their constructive resolution and therefore geometric and graphic control have given new impulses to this question. Supported on the development of the digital technology applied to manufacturing and control of the form, we would have seen spectacular results. Using the advances allowed by CAD systems and especially by processing computational and parametrically some classical geometry topics, we have achieved the basis of a method to adapt Freeform Surfaces through Developable Surfaces Using Apparent Contours.
