The clue to curve network-based design is the construction of smoothly connected multi-sided patches. A new type of transfinite surface, called Composite Ribbon (CR) patch is introduced, that is a combination of curved ribbons and ensures G1 continuity over non-regular, convex polygonal domains. After discussing the construction and the preferred parameterization scheme, a few simple examples conclude the paper.I.3.5 [Computer Graphics]Computational Geometry and Object ModelingCurvesurfacesolidand object representationsTransfinite Surface Patches Using Curved Ribbons
