A ball B-spline curve (BBSC) is a skeleton based solid model representation, which consists of a B-spline curve and a B-spline function serving as the (varying) radius of a ball moving along the B-spline curve. The surface shape specified by the BBSC is the envelope of the moving ball and thus the B...
