    The author gives a necessary and sufficient condition for a quadratic triangular Bézier patch to be convex, i.e., for which every tangent plane is supporting, and some more practical necessary or sufficient conditions. The paper also contains examples of the breakdowns of convexity if some conditions are violated.
