a subdivision scheme that repeatedly refines an arbitrary polygon mesh into a smooth limit surface that generalizes bicubic B-spline patches.

In computer graphics, Catmull-Clark subdivision refers to a subdivision scheme that repeatedly refines an arbitrary polygon mesh into a smooth limit surface that generalizes bicubic B-spline patches. This meaning comes from Catmull (1978) in Computer-Aided Design.[1]
