contents We study Seiberg-Witten (SW) geometries for rank-two theories, encompassing 4D field theories as well as 5D and 6D Kaluza-Klein (KK) theories. The singular model for each SW geometry is derived from a one-parameter family of algebraic curves $y^2 = f(x,t)$, where $t$ parametrizes one dimension of Coulomb branch moduli space. The functional form of $f(x,t)$ is systematically determined through analysis of singular fibers at $t=\infty$. Two powerful computational methods enable this determination: a): Liu's algorithm for determining singular fibers from local equation; b): The canonical resolution method for fiber degeneration. Our construction provides not only a complete description of known solutions but also establishes a robust framework for generating new theories. This methodology proves particularly valuable for the systematic exploration of 5D and 6D theories.
