Surfaces deformation

Let $ f = f_{t_i\mapsto t_{i+1}}$ be a transformation of the shape. First, note that the transformations of the first and second derivatives of a parameterized surface are given by the Jacobian $ J =
(\frac{\delta f}{\delta x}, \frac{\delta f}{\delta y}, \frac{\delta f
}{\delta z})$:

\begin{displaymath}\begin{array}{rcl}
\frac{\delta f\circ\xi}{\delta u}
&=&\fra...
...{\delta\xi} \frac{\delta^2\xi}{\delta u\delta v}\\
\end{array}\end{displaymath}
