Abstract
This paper presents a novel approach for constructing a piecewise triangular cubic polynomial surface with C/sup 1/ continuity around a common corner vertex. A C/sup 1/ continuity condition between two cubic triangular patches is first derived using mixed directional derivatives. An approach for constructing a surface with C/sup 1/ continuity around a corner is then developed. Our approach is easy and fast with the virtue of cubic reproduction, local shape controllability, C/sup 2/ continuous at the corner vertex. Some experimental results are presented to show the applicability and flexibility of the approach.
