Abstract

In this paper, a new technique is developed for representing 3-D articular surface, which is based on an analogy method with application of the thin plate theory in the solid mechanics. The method is suitable to represent the scattered data points. On the other word, it does not involve the surface patches and measuring preparation in experimentally. This means the new technique is more easy and convenient than the traditional one.
