Abstract

We approach surface design by solving second-order and fourth-order Partial Differential Equations (PDEs). We present many methods for designing triangular Bézier PDE surfaces given different sets of prescribed control points and including the special cases of harmonic and biharmonic surfaces. Moreover, we introduce and study a second-order and a fourth-order symmetric operator to overcome the anisotropy drawback of the harmonic and biharmonic operators over triangular Bézier surfaces.
