  • Abstract
    A new model of triangular Ball surface is proposed with its quadratic complexity. It can be constructed from the idea of Wang-Ball univaritate functions and Wang algorithm. The new bivariate basis functions look analogous to the Wang-Ball polynomials. Evaluating points on a curve can be calculated from the new recursive algorithm that is proved to be quadratic, O(n2). Thus, the calculation time is less than any other triangular curves. Finally several important geometric properties for these surfaces are also identified such as normality, convexity and symmetry.
