Conversion between triangular Bézier patches and rectangular Bézier patches

In this paper, two explicit conversion formulae between triangular and rectangular Bézier patches are derived. Using the formulae, one triangular Bézier patch of degree n can be converted into one rectangular Bézier patch of degree n×n. And one rectangular Bézier patch of degree m×n can be converted...
