6.4.3.3 Parametric-implicit

  1. Equate the projection of the - order derivative vector of with respect to the arc length of the parametric and implicit surfaces onto the unit normal vector, i.e. , and (6.53), to form a linear equation in and , where , , are replaced by the components of .
  2. The second linear equation in and is obtained from , where and , which depends exlusively on and and their derivatives, is defined in (6.47).
  3. Solve the linear system for and substitute them into , .
