Curve and surface construction based on the generalized toric-Bernstein basis functions

10 Apr 2019  ·  Li Jing-Gai, Zhu Chun-Gang ·

The construction of parametric curve and surface plays important role in computer aided geometric design (CAGD), computer aided design (CAD), and geometric modeling. In this paper, we define a new kind of blending functions associated with a real points set, called generalized toric-Bernstein (GT-Bernstein) basis functions. Then the generalized toric-Bezier (GT-B\'ezier) curves and surfaces are constructed based on the GT-Bernstein basis functions, which are the projections of the (irrational) toric varieties in fact and the generalizations of the classical rational B\'ezier curves and surfaces and toric surface patches. Furthermore, we also study the properties of the presented curves and surfaces, including the limiting properties of weights and knots. Some representative examples verify the properties and results.
