Designing of 3D object have been used in generating various models and objects. In
Computer Aided Design (CAD), surface generation with suitable conventional method are
Bezier surface and B-spline. These methods have many control points to produce an
object. Hence, we need long time to generate object. Thus, Partial Differential Equation
(PDE) is used as PDE are able to control the size and shape of object by considering a
small set of design variables or parameters. The purpose of this project is to generate
the smoothies object of stool. The methodology are to extract boundary point from the
stool using Autodesk Maya and to convert point to boundary curve by using the Fourier
coefficient solved using the MatLab. Hence, the fourth order of PDE need to be solved in
order to generate a stool. As a result, smooth PDE surface of stool can be produced.
Otherwise, difference diameter of stool will be produced.
