Almost rotation-minimizing rational parametrization of canal surfaces
Almost rotation minimizing parametrization of the canal surface is given. The basic building block of our approach is the curve approximation scheme that enables us to construct a curve, called the parameter curve, on the canal surface that produces, when projected and rescaled, an almost parallel normal vector field on the spine curve. Its construction relies on our earlier methods and results...
متن کاملGeometric Information and Rational Parametrization of Nonsingular Cubic Blending Surfaces
The techniques for parametrizing nonsingular cubic surfaces have shown to be of great interest in recent years. This paper is devoted to the rational parametrization of nonsingular cubic blending surfaces. We claim that these nonsingular cubic blending surfaces can be parametrized using the symbolic computation due to their excellent geometric properties. Especially for the specific forms of th...
متن کاملClifford algebra, Lorentzian geometry, and rational parametrization of canal surfaces
We present a new approach toward the rational parametrization of canal surfaces. According to our previous work, every canal surface with rational (respectively polynomial) spine curve and rational (respectively polynomial) radius function is a rational (respectively polynomial) Pythagorean hodograph curve in R3,1. Drawing upon this formalism and utilizing the underlying Lorentzian geometry, th...
متن کاملDetermination and (re)parametrization of rational developable surfaces
The developable surface is an important surface in computer aided design, geometric modeling and industrial manufactory. It is often given in the standard parametric form, but it can also be in the implicit form which is commonly used in algebraic geometry. Not all algebraic developable surfaces have rational parametrizations. In this paper, we focus on the rational developable surfaces. For a ...
متن کاملLocal parametrization of cubic surfaces
Algebraic surfaces – which are frequently used in geometric modeling – are represented either in implicit or parametric form. Several techniques for parameterizing a rational algebraic surface as a whole exist. However, in many applications, it suffices to parameterize a small portion of the surface. This motivates the analysis of local parametrizations, i.e., parametrizations of a small neighb...
