•Multi-sided holes in a bicubic patch complex are filled by a curvature-continuous cap.•The cap is of degree bi-5 and has good and flexible shape.•The space of n -sided G2G2 caps of degree bi-5 is explored via functionals.
Recently, it was shown that a bi-cubic patch complex with n -sided holes can be completed into a curvature-continuous (G2G2) surface by n-sided caps of degree bi-5 that offer good and flexible shape ( Karčiauskas and Peters, 2013). This paper further explores the space of n-sided caps of degree bi-5 but focuses on functionals to set degrees of freedom and to optimally propagate and average out curvature from the bi-cubic complex.
