B-Spline basis on a 3D mesh
I need to interpolate some (sparse) data scattered on a 3D manifold mesh. In other words, I have a scattered interpolation problem where the input values are defined for some vertices of the mesh. ...

Interpolation constant on triangles
There are quite a few references regarding the estimation for the interpolation error for the piece-wise affine finite elements. I find one particular estimate interesting (and useful in my case), ...

Quintic Hermite shape functions
I am trying to use quintic Hermite basis functions for FEM applications, could someone please direct me to the general formula that would help me generate quintic Hermite shape functions?
