TRIVARIATE POLYNOMIAL SPLINES ON 3D T-MESHES

Trivariate polynomial spline spaces defined on three-dimensional (3D) T-meshes are useful tools for the finite element method. In addition to dimension formulae, explicit basis functions are constructed. The approach uses Bernstein- Bezier methods to get precise conditions on the geometry of the meshe...
