CV in brief
The research of Carolina Beccari is focused on geometric
modeling, interpolation, subdivision schemes, splines,
approximation theory, and Computer-Aided Design (CAD).
She has authored several papers on construction and analysis of
non-stationary, non-uniform and monotonicity preserving subdivision
schemes. As an expert insubdivision schemes, in 2011 she has been
appointed as a visiting professor at the group CAGD-CGAO of the
University of Valenciennes (FR).
She is interested in the study of mono-and multivariate spline
functions, also collaborating with the Center for Constructive
Approximation at Vanderbilt University (USA), where she spent
several research periods.
She investigates the integration of subdivision surfaces in CAD
systems. On this subject she has participated in funded projects
and collaborated with companies of international importance. She is
co-author of the software module on subdivision surfaces integrated
into the system ThinkDesign of think3.
She has presented numerous, also invited, talks at national and
international conferences and received grants for research projects, research visits
and for attending specialized courses.
She works as a referee for international journals and selection
committees.
She has performed teaching activity for several
courses of Scientific Calculus, Numerical Analysis, and Computer
Science and she has supervised several bachelor and master theses
in Mathematics and Computer Science.
