THIS ONE-OF-A-KIND SELF-TEACHING TEXT OFFERS: * Questions at the end of each chapter and section to reinforce learning and pinpoint weaknesses * A 100-question final exam for self-assessment * Detailed examples and solutions
Advances in Geometric Modeling illustrates the significance of Geometric Modeling in construction, design and manufacture, in not only the traditional industries such as automobile and aircraft manufacturing, but also in modern industry. This includes CAD/CAM, Computer Art, Entertainment, Education and Training, Visualization, robotics, medical imaging, visualisation, painting and media, and others.
Here is the first modern introduction to geometric probability, also known as integral geometry, presented at an elementary level, requiring little more than first-year graduate mathematics. Klein and Rota present the theory of intrinsic volumes due to Hadwiger, McMullen, Santaló and others, along with a complete and elementary proof of Hadwiger's characterization theorem of invariant measures in Euclidean n-space.
