Problem and Approach The new method: In each step we only increase the multiplicityof one interior knot and elevate the degree of only in one knot interval. Denote for each ,we update to by increasing the multiplicity of by one,andelevate the degree of the basis functions only in knot interval .

Conclusions and future work Conclusions: In this paper we have presented

the theory of bi-degree B-spline.Using it we prove that degree elevation of B-spline curve can be interpreted as corner cutting.

Future work: 1)computing the explicit coefficients of the

corner cutting. 2)to investigate more properties and applications of the bi-degree B-spline.
