Abstract
A blending model for parametrically defined geometric objects is presented. This blending model, based on a generalized parametric equation, provides insight of the blending nature of many of the curve and surface techniques. It also provides solution to some of the surface/surface intersection and surface/surface blending problems. By carefully designing the blending functions, it can handle 3-sided blending as well. The blending model does not depend on any particular surface representation.
