โฆ Synopsis
Given a set of scattered data, a method is presented that yield a bivariate function that approximates the given data. We use B-spiine finite elements. A method of calculation of inner products of B-splines and its derivatives is presented. In the case of cubic splines and equally spaced knots, the explicit vahies for the inner products are given.

For smooth meridian, local displacements of the shell middle surface and their ยฎrst derivatives are matched
