We startwith a piece of initial non-uniform B-spline curve (surface) which takes the given point setas its control point set. Then by adjusting its control points gradually with iterative formula,we can get a group of non-uniform B-spline curves (surfaces) with gradually higherprecision. In this paper, using modern matrix theory, we strictly prove that the limit curve(surface) of the iteration interpolates the given point set. The non-uniform B-spline curves(surfaces) generated with the iteration have many advantages, such as satisfying theNURBS standard, having explicit expression, gaining locality, and convexity preserving,etc展开更多

But how to do degree reduction of NURBS curves in a fast and efficient way still remains a puzzling problem. By applying the theory of the best uniform approximation of Chebyshev polynomials and the explicit matrix representation of NURBS curves, this paper gives the necessary and sufficient condition for degree reducible NURBS curves in an explicit form. And a new way of doing degree reduction of NURBS curves is also presented, including the multi-degree reduction of a NURBS curve on each knot span and the multi-degree reduction of a whole NURBS curve. This method is easy to carry out, and only involves simple calculations.
