Hi guys,

Is it possible with Matlab to build a surface based on 2 NURBS? I've used a CAD package for that, but the script runs for a while.
I need to extract the points on the surface (conducted by 2, 3 or even 4 NURBS as bounds, to form a closed profile) equally spaced on the both main axes.
In CAD packages, one can just sweep a NURBS along the other and get the surface, which is going to be intersected by 2 sets of orthogonal planes to each NURBS to get some certain x-y grid points.

I'd appreciate any help.
