  • Abstract
    Rational Bezier curves provide flexibility in curve design. The goal of this paper is to perform error analysis of Farin´s (1983, 1986) algorithm for the evaluation of these curves. It is shown that a similar error analysis can be applied for the algorithms in rational spaces obtained from spaces admitting shape preserving representations
