Approximating rational triangular Bézier surfaces by polynomial triangular Bézier surfaces

چکیده
An attractive method for approximating rational triangular Bézier surfaces by polynomial triangular Bézier surfaces is introduced. The main result is that the arbitrary given order derived vectors of a polynomial triangular surface converge uniformly to those of the approximated rational triangular Bézier surface as the elevated degree tends to infinity. The polynomial triangular surface is constructed as follows. Firstly, we elevate the degree of the approximated rational triangular Bézier surface, then a polynomial triangular Bézier surface is produced, which has the same order and new control points of the degree-elevated rational surface. The approximation method has theoretical significance and application value: it solves two shortcomings-fussy expression and uninsured convergence of the approximation-of Hybrid algorithms for rational polynomial curves and surfaces approximation.

Subdivision Algorithms and Convexity Analysis for Rational Bézier Triangular Patches
Triangular surfaces are important because in areas where the geometry is not similar to rectangular domain, the rectangular surface patch will collapse into a triangular patch. In such a case, one boundary edge may collapse into a boundary vertex of the patch, giving rise to geometric dissimilarities (e.g. shape parameters, Gaussian curvature distribution, cross boundary continuities etc.) and ...

متن کاملDegree Reduction of Triangular Bézier Surfaces with C-Vertices
The issue of Cα-degree reduction of triangular Bézier surfaces is exposed. It is anticipated that both triangular Bézier surfaces are Cα-continuous at the vertices. The Euclidean norm as well as the L2−norm is used. The final solutions are given in terms of the matrix of degree raising, the Gram matrix, and the Bézier points. Moreover, it is shown that the solutions using both norms are equival...

The paper is devoted to the parametrization extension problem: given a loop composed of 3 (resp. 4) rational Bézier curves on a rational surface X, find a triangular (resp. tensor product) Bézier patch on X of optimal degree bounded by these curves. The constructive solution to the formulated problem is presented in details for cases where X is a sphere or a hyperbolic paraboloid. Then X is an ...

This paper derives an approximation algorithm for multi-degree reduction of a degree n triangular Bézier surface with corners continuity in the normL2. The new idea is to use orthonormality of triangular Jacobi polynomials and the transformation relationship between bivariate Jacobi and Bernstein polynomials. This algorithm has a very simple and explicit expression in matrix form, i.e., the red...
