[b]Learning Outcomes:[/b]
After successfully attending the course, students understand the foundations of computer-aided methods for geometric modelling and simulation. They understand multiple parametric representations for curves and surfaces and are able to analyze and compare them. They know classical data structures and algorithms from computer aided design (CAD). They can use the presented techniques to model and visualize 3D geometry.
