Abstract

In this paper, the necessary and sufficient conditions and an algorithm for G⁴ continuity between adjacent Bezier patches are presented. The effects of shape parameters for surface connection are investigated in details. The algorithm can be generalized directly to the case of higher order geometric continuity for surface connecting. It has important applications in surface modeling, surface blending and surface connecting.
