AbstractThis paper describes an algorithm for generating piecewise parametric curved surfaces from arbitrary topological meshes. The algorithm is developed by extending and modifying Riesenfeld's constructive method for determining points on B-spline curves. The surfaces produced near extraordinary points are shown to be slope continuous and compatible with bi-quadratic B-spline surfaces generated from adjacent rectangular regions. In fact, applying this algorithm to rectangular meshes gives bi-quadratic B-spline surfaces. The implementation of this algorithm is simple and the evaluation of position vectors, tangent vectors and normal vectors of points on the surfaces is straightforward.
