Discrete differential geometry driven methods for architectural geometry by Yao, Sidan

“…In Chapter 5, we present a simple yet effective method for constructing 3D self-supporting surfaces with planar quadrilateral (PQ) elements. Starting with a self-supporting surface in triangle mesh, we first compute the principal curvatures and directions of each triangular face using a new approach, yielding more accurate results than existing methods. …”
