dc.description.abstract	A rational B-spline curve or surface is a collection of points associated with a mass (weight) distribution. These mass distributions can be used to exert local control over the morph between two rational B-spline curves or surfaces. Here we propose a technique for designing customized morphs by attaching appropriate mass distributions to target B-spline curves and surfaces. We also develop a user interface for this morphing method that is easy to use and requires no knowledge of B-splines on the part of the designer.	en_US
