Abstract

We present an algorithm for completing a C 2 surface of up to degree bi-6 by capping an n -sided hole with polar layout. The cap consists of n tensor-product patches, each of degree 6 in the periodic and degree 5 in the radial direction. To match the polar layout, one edge of these patches is collapsed. We explore and compare with alternative constructions, based on more pieces or using total-degree, triangular patches.
