Abstract
Variational principles have become quite popular in the design of free form surfaces. Among others they are used for fairing purposes. The choice of the right fairness functional is a crucial step. There is always a tradeoff between high quality and computational effort. In this paper we present fairness functionals that allow fairing efficiently, i.e., produce high quality surfaces in a reasonable amount of time. These functionals can be considered as simplified thin plate energy functionals for parametric surfaces or as simplified MVC functionals.
