Abstract

A method is presented for approximating surfaces, which are the solutions of partial differential equations, in terms of B-splines so that they can be represented in a form which is compatible with more established techniques of surface design. This allows surface data generated in this way to be incorporated into other design systems. Furthermore, the properties of B-splines can be used to good effect to enhance the PDE method, and this is illustrated by exercising local control of the surface shape in one of the examples given in the results.
