A fractal interpolation between a 'double sphere' and the Bonan-Jeener-Klein triple bottle defined by means of three bidimensional fields [Une interpolation fractale entre une 'double sphère' et la triple bouteille de Bonan-Jeener-Klein défini à l'aide de trois champs bidimensionnels].




Many surfaces -bidimensional manifolds- in a tridimensional space can be defined using a set of three equations: 
                    X = Fx(u,v)

                    Y = Fy(u,v)

                    Z = Fz(u,v)
with: 
                    u ∈ [Umin,Umax]

                    v ∈ [Vmin,Vmax]
[Umin,Umax]*[Vmin,Vmax] then defined a bidimensional rectangular domain D.

                                U                           U              u
                                 min                         max

If D is sampled by means of a bidimensional rectangular grid (made of Nu*Nv points), the three {X,Y,Z} coordinates can be defined by means of three rectangular matrices: 
                    X = Mx(i,j)

                    Y = My(i,j)

                    Z = Mz(i,j)
with: 
                    i = f(u,Umin,Umax,Nu)

                    j = g(v,Vmin,Vmax,Nv)
where 'f' and 'g' denote two obvious linear functions...
