MINSURF2

 
Given a parametric surface FB(X,Y) = (F1,F2,F3) defined on [0,1] X [0,1], finds a
surface F that agrees with FB on the boundary and has minimum surface area. The
Fletcher-Reeves conjugate gradient method is used to minimize the surface area
functional PHI(F) = Integral( ||(D1(F) X D2(F))^2||_2 ), where the cross product
of first partials is the surface normal vector. A (Solbolev) F-gradient is used,
resulting in a variable metric method.
