A simple and effective combined subdivision surface’s modification method is proposed, which is realized by editing its curve network locally. After discussing the overlapping principles of Catmull-Clark subdivision and combined subdivision, a quick update method of the modified surface is given by building the difference curve network from the original curve network and the edited curve network and overlapping the mesh from the difference curve network to the mesh from the original curve network. This method is closely related with the features of combined subdivision, so it is simple and high efficiency. It is useful in the concept design of complex product.
