The partially blended rational bicubic spline has 12 parameters in the descriptions where 8 of them are free parameters. The sufficient conditions for the positivity are derived on every four boundary curves network on the rectangular patch. Numerical comparison with existing schemes also has been done in detail. Based on Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), our partially blended rational bicubic spline is on a par with the established methods. © 2015 Samsul Ariffin Abdul Karim et al. date: 2015 publisher: Hindawi Limited official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84926686710&doi=10.1155%2f2015%2f572768&partnerID=40&md5=c8fa0c958f305f3832f85bd5bd5b5be0 id_number: 10.1155/2015/572768 full_text_status: none publication: Journal of Applied Mathematics volume: 2015 refereed: TRUE issn: 1110757X citation: Abdul Karim, S.A. and Voon Pang, K. and Saaban, A.
