Abstract
The tutorial covers all major surface design methods, including the underlying curve schemes. Tensor product surfaces are described in the forms of Bezier, Coons, and B-Spline surfaces. These methods are also carried over to triangular surface patches. Where appropriate, interpolation aspects are treated as well as approximations.
