Computer systems may be used to generate and display objects represented by triangles defined by coordinates of vertices. The present invention generates coordinates of a simplified vertex based upon coordinates of vertices adjacent to a first vertex and to a second vertex that define an edge of the triangles. First, a set of triangles that are adjacent to the edge is identified, Second, a first volume associated with the set of triangles is calculated. Finally, the coordinates of the simplified vertex are calculated such that a second volume associated with the simplified vertex corresponds to the first volume.
