Circular Arc S***ctures
As a means of rationalization of freeform architectural designs, "circular arc s***ctures" combine faithful consistency with the design intent and simple edge elements and con***ent nodes. This paper summarizes the method's easily manufactured support elements, repetition, the first global approximation method for principal patches, and volumetric designs.

Spin Transformations of Discrete Surfaces
This paper introduces a new method for computing conformal maps directly between triangle meshes in R^3. Conformal maps are desirable because they preserve texture fidelity and the quality of the mesh itself. The method is simple and can be used to efficiently edit surfaces by manipulating curvature and boundary data.
