  • Abstract
    We introduce here a new MoM technique marrying the old idea of entire domain or large domain basis functions with a wide-spread computational geometry method known as the non-uniform rational B-spline (NURBS). The critical detail here is not in the expression of the object as a combination of NURBS curves and surfaces but in the specification of basis functions in the parameter space of the NURBS. To the author´s knowledge, no prior research has ever been done in this area.
