TOPIC: A Rectangular nu -Spline for Interactive Surface Design

ABSTRACT: A new type of surface for interactive design is presented.  The
mathematical presentation of this surface is based upon a rectangular
network of nu-splines.  Tension can be applied interactively at a single
control point or along and across a curve of the network.  Computational
algorithms are discussed and some examples are presented.
