Approximating rational triangular Bézier surfaces by polynomial triangular Bézier surfaces (Q1019799)

A new algorithm for approximating a rational triangular Bézier surface \((\mathbb R)\) by a polynomial triangular Bézier surface \((\mathbb B)\) is given. The derivative vector of an arbitrary degree of \(\mathbb B\) converges uniformly to the corresponding derivative vector of \(\mathbb R\). The approximating method developed, has a theoretical and application value by itself.
