Abstract

This work presents a computational framework for generating swept surfaces (ruled, cylindrical, and sweep) based exclusively on curves NURBS, eliminating the reliance on explicit analytical parametric formulas. The proposal enables the construction of surfaces through direct transformations between generative curves and trajectories, introducing a 'scaled cylindrical' model to control cross-sectional expansion. This approach ensures precise local geometric control and a unified computational structure for computer-aided design.
