Nadler. E., Nonnegativity of bivariate quadratic functions on a triangle. Computer Aided Geometric Design 9 (1992) 19.5-205. A necessary and sufficient condition for the nonnegativity of a bivariate quadratic defined on a triangle is presented in terms of the Bernstein-Bkzier form of the function. Keywfords.

Contouring Curved Quadratic Elements

We show how to extract a contour line (or isosurface) from quadratic elements—specifically from quadratic triangles and tetrahedra. We also devise how to transform the resulting contour line (or surface) into a quartic curve (or surface) based on a curved-triangle (curved-tetrahedron) mapping. A contour in a bivariate quadratic function defined over a triangle in parameter space is a conic sect...

On rational quadratic differential forms

In linear system theory, we often encounter the situation of investigating some quadratic functionals which represent Lyapunov functions, energy storage, performance measures, e.t.c. Such a quadratic functional is called a quadratic differential form (QDF) in the context of the behavioral approach. In the past works, a QDF is usually defined in terms of a polynomial matrix. The contribution of ...

Approximation and geometric modeling with simplex B-splines associated with irregular triangles

Bivariate quadratic simplicial B-splines defined by their corresponding set of knots derived from a (suboptimal) constrained Delaunay triangulation of the domain are employed to obtain a Cl-smooth surface. The generation of triangle vertices is adjusted to the area1 distribution of the data in the domain. We emphasize here that the vertices of the triangles initially define the knots of the B-s...

Bivariate C1 Quadratic Finite Elements and Vertex Splines

Following work of Heindl and of Powell and Sabin, each triangle of an arbitrary (regular) triangulation A of a polygonal region ii in R is subdivided into twelve triangles, using the three medians, yielding the refinement A of A , so that C quadratic finite elements can be constructed. In this paper, we derive the Bézier nets of these elements in terms of the parameters that describe function a...

A Hermite Subdivision Scheme for PS - 12 3 Initialization 1 . subdivision step

It is observed that the Powell-Sabin 12-split triangle is reen-able since the same split of the 4 similar subtriangles of a triangle contains the lines of split of the original triangle. This property of the split is the key to the existence of a subdivision scheme, for the evaluation of the C 1 quadratic spline on the split which interpolates function and gradient values at the 3 vertices of t...
