When all the weights of a rational B@zier surface go to infinity in the form of power function, the limit of surface is the regular control surface induced by some lifting function, which is called toric degenerations of rational Bezier surfaces. In this paper, we study on the degenerations of the rational Bezier surface with weights in the exponential function and indicate the difference of our result and the work of Garcia-Puente et al. Through the transformation of weights in the form of exponential function and power function, the regular control surface of rational Bezier surface with weights in the exponential function is defined, which is just the limit of the surface. Compared with the power function, the exponential function approaches infinity faster, which leads to surface with the weights in the form of exponential function degenerates faster.展开更多

The method of preserving positivity on the interpolation surface and constraint on interpolating data is also developed. The advantage of this new method is that it can be used to constrain the shape of an interpolating surface only by selecting suitable parameters, and numerical examples are presented to show the performance of the method.展开更多
