Finite-element modelling is a standard way for simulation of soft tissue deformation. For proper modelling, triangular surface models must fulfil requirements of accuracy , smoothness, and conciseness. Several techniques proposed in the literature do not meet these requirements. In this paper we extend a new technique called SurfaceNets, which can create a globally smooth triangle mesh that retains fine detail.
