Approximation of Gaussian Curvature by the Angular Defect: An Error Analysis
It is common practice in science and engineering to approximate smooth surfaces and their geometric properties by using triangle meshes with vertices on the surface. Here, we study the approximation of the Gaussian curvature through the Gauss–Bonnet scheme. In this scheme, the Gaussian curvature at...
