TPTITLE:Improved Tessellation of Algebraic Curves and Surfaces Using A-Patches
TPABSTRACT:This talk is a follow up to my previous CGL tech presentation where I<nl>discussed a method for tessellating algebraic curves and surfaces using<nl>A-patch single sheet conditions.  In that work, the tessellation method<nl>was slow to converge for some data sets.  In this talk, I review A-patches<nl>and our tessellation algorithm, and investigate why the method is slow<nl>to converge for some curves.  I then propose additional single-sheet<nl>conditions that solve these convergence problems.
