Construction of B-spline surface from cubic B-spline asymptotic quadrilateral

Construction of B-spline surface from cubic B-spline asymptotic quadrilateral

Asymptote is widely used in astronomy, mechanics, architecture and relevant subjects. In this paper, by analyzing the Frenet frame and the Darboux frame of a curve on the surface, the necessary and sufficient conditions for a quadrilateral boundary being asymptotic of a surface are derived. This quadrilateral is called asymptotic quadrilateral. Given corner data including positions, tangents an...

A cubic B-spline-based hybrid registration

The goal of this study is to develop a matching algorithm that can handle large geometric changes in x-ray computed tomography (CT)-derived lung geometry occurring during deep breath maneuvers. These geometric relationships are further utilized to build a dynamic lung airway model for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) studies of pulmonary air flow. The proposed algorithm is based on a cubic B-...

Sequential B-Spline Surface Construction Using Multiresolution Data Clouds

B-spline surfaces are widely used in engineering practices as a flexible and efficient mathematical model for product design, analysis, and assessment. In this paper, we propose a new sequential B-spline surface construction procedure using multiresolution measurements. At each iterative step of the proposed procedure, we first update knots vectors based on bias and variance decomposition of th...

Construction of dual B-spline functions

Using new properties of dual functions, we show that the method of constructing the dual bases recently presented in [P. Woźny, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 245 (2013), 75–85] can be significantly simplified. Next, we propose a simple algorithm of constructing the dual B-spline functions, which can be useful in solving some approximation problems related to numerical analysis or computer graphics.
