Tessellating Algebraic Curves and Surfaces Using A-Patches

This work approaches the problem of triangulating algebraic curves/surfaces with a subdivision-style algorithm using A-Patches. An implicit algebraic curve is converted from the monomial basis to the bivariate Bernstein-Bezier basis while implicit algebraic surfaces are converted to the trivariate...
