In this thesis, local basis and dimensions of bivariate spline spaces over some specialtriangulations are discussed. Firstly, representations of a locally supported dual basis for thebivariate C2 spline space S 52(?W) on Wang's refined triangulation ?W are given by using theHermite interpolation conditions. Secondly, by using the method of Bernstein-Beā²zier netand the technique of minimal determining sets, a minimal determinining set for the bivariatespline space S 62(+?mn) over the generalized type II triangulation +?mn is given, and the dimensionof bivariate spline space S 62(+?mn) is determined. Finally, the generalized type I triangulation?m(1n) is defined, a minimal determinining set for bivariate quintic C2 spline space S52(?m(1n)) over?m(1n) is given and the dimension of S52(?m(1n)) is determined. |
