What is Nurbs AutoCAD?

Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS) is simply the name for the mathematics that is used to create the geometry in Alias, and in many other CAD systems.

What is NURBS used for?

NURBS are useful for constructing many types of organic 3D forms because of the smooth and minimal nature of the curves they use to construct surfaces. NURBS surface types are widely used in the fields of animation, games, scientific visualization, and industrial design.

What is the difference between NURBS and mesh?

A NURBS model consists of points connected by curves. A polygon mesh consists of thousands or millions of small triangles.

What are the characteristics of NURBS?

NURBS, Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines, are mathematical representations of 3D geometry that can accurately describe any shape from a simple 2D line, circle, arc, or curve to the most complex 3D organic free-form surface or solid.
