... of the same length: b = Ra you could use two rotations constructed from orthonormal bases. A more efficient method is given in Efficiently Building a Matrix to Rotate One Vector to Another (Akenine-Möller, Haines, & Hoffman, 2008).

The C2 thin-plate spline is most commonly used (Turk & O'Brien, 2002; J. C. Carr et al., 2001). Like Blinn's exponential function (see Figure 16.2), this function is unbounded as is the resulting variational implicit surface.
These include the two classic computer graphics texts I first learned the basics from as a student: Computer Graphics: Principles & Practice (Foley, Van Dam, Feiner, & Hughes, 1990), and Computer Graphics (Hearn & Baker, 1986).

Fundamentas of Computer Graphics
Focusing on geometric intuition, this book gives the necessary information for understanding how images get onto the screen by using the complementary approaches of ray tracing and rasterization.
Focusing on geometric intuition, this widely adopted text gives students in film, gaming, or web design, a comprehensive, fundamental introduction to the mathematics of computer graphics, allowing the programmer to understand and apply ...
