title	How to Make the Bicubic Patch Work Using Reparametrisation
source	1980 ? 11 p. includes bibliography
summary	This paper comprises a series of examples in numerical surface definition, loosely strung together, to show the practical limitations of the bicubic patch and how they can be overcome by reparametrisation. The concept of reparametrisation is more general than that used in computer- aided geometric design insofar as the reparametrisation is modeled in addition to the basic parametric equation
