  • Abstract
    In this paper, the problem of shape preserving C² rational cubic spline has been proposed.The shapes of the positive and convex data are under discussion of the proposed spline solutions.A C² rational cubic function with two families of free parameters has been introduced to attain the C² positive curves from positive data and C² convex curves from convex data. Simple data dependent constraints are derived on free parameters in the description of rational cubic function to obtain the desired shape of the data. The rational cubic schemes have unique representations.
