Ph Quintic Spiral Transition Curves and Their Applications

چکیده
A method for family of G Pythagorean hodograph (PH) quintic spiral transition from straight line to circle is discussed in this paper. This method is then extended to a pair of spirals between two straight lines or two circles. We derive a family of quintic transition spiral curves joining them. Due to flexibility and wide range of shape control parameters, our method can be easily applied for practical applications like high way designing, blending in CAD, consumer products such as ping-pong paddles, rounding corners, or designing a smooth path that avoids obstacles.

Circle to Circle Transition with a Single Ph Quintic Spiral
This paper theoretically describes how to compose a single Pythagorean hodograph (PH) quintic Bézier spiral segment, between two circles with one circle inside the other. A spiral is free of local curvature extrema, making spiral design an interesting mathematical problem with importance for both physical and aesthetic applications. The curvature of a spiral varies monotonically with arc-length...
متن کاملGeneralising the planar Pythagorean-hodograph quintic spiral
Abstract Spiral segments are useful in the design of fair curves. They are important in CAD/CAM applications, the design of highway and railway routes, trajectories of mobile robots and other similar applications. The quintic Pythagorean hodograph (PH) curve discussed in this technical report is polynomial; it has the attractive properties that its arc-length is a polynomial of its parameter, a...
متن کاملG Pythagorean hodograph quintic transition between two circles
Walton & Meek [13] obtained fair G Pythagorean hodograph (PH) quintic transition Sand C-shaped curves connecting two circles. It was shown that an S-shaped curve has no curvature extremum and a Cshaped curve has a single curvature extremum. We simplified and completed their analysis. A family of fair PH quintic transition curves between two circles has been derived. We presented an algorithm wi...

Abstract This paper presents a C2 Pythagorean-Hodograph (PH) spline curve interpolator for high speed contouring applications. With the knot vector and control points given, the C2 PH quintic spline curve is a ‘‘good’’ interpolant to the nodal points of the cubic B-spline curve, with the same ...
