Abstract

Processing method for transforming a first surface into a second surface, according to which: a/ in a (k+1)th iteration step, for each couple comprising a first elementary surface and a second elementary surface transformed from the first elementary surface in iteration k, the projection of the second elementary surface on the plane of the first elementary surface is determined and a matrix (A) is defined for said couple, where (A)=pkt,(pt)−1 and pt=[pn+1−pi]i=1 to n, pkt,=[p′n+1,k−p′i,k]i=1 to n; b/ the second elementary surfaces obtained for the (k+1)th iteration are determined as those minimizing a function including at least the term Eshapek+1=(B).
