Target Curvature Based Automatic Fairing of Planar B-Spline Curves
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new automatic local fairing technique for planar B-spline curves is presented in this paper. According to the design intent, a target curvature plot, which is provided by the designer, is used to identify ‘bad’ points and ‘bad’ curve segments. Then, the corresponding control points are modified in a process of local constrained optimization where the importance of fairness in the sense of energy minimizing versus coherence to the original design can be adjusted by the designer. Experimental results are given to show the validity of this method.

Fast and Local Fairing of B-Spline Curves and Surfaces
The paper proposes a fast fairing algorithm for curves and surfaces. It rst de nes a base algorithm for fairing curves, which is then extended to the surface case, where the isocurves of the surface are faired. The curve fairing process involves the discrete integration of a pseudo-arc-length parameterization of B-spline curves, with a blending and tting phase concluding the algorithm. In the c...
متن کاملDiscrete Fairing of Curves and Surfaces Based on Linear Curvature Distribution
In the planar case, one possibility to create a high quality curve that interpolates a given set of points is to use a clothoid spline, which is a curvature continuous curve with linear curvature segments. In the rst part of the paper we develop an e cient fairing algorithm that calculates the discrete analogon of a closed clothoid spline. In the second part we show how this discrete linear cur...
متن کاملLocal Energy Fairing of B-spline Curves
An automatic algorithm for fairing B-spline curves of general order is presented. This work was motivated by a method of Farin and Sapidis about fairing planar cubic B-spline curves by subsequently removing and reinserting knots. Instead our new algorithm is based on the idea of subsequently changing one control point of a given B-spline curve so that the new curve minimizes the integral of the...
متن کاملTotal curvature variation fairing for medial axis regularization
We present a new fairing method for planar curves, which is particularly well suited for the regularization of the medial axis of a planar domain. It is based on the concept of total variation regularization. The original boundary (given as a closed B-spline curve or several such curves for multiply connected domains) is approximated by another curve that possesses a smaller number of curvature...
متن کاملA multi-level filtering approach for fairing planar cubic B-spline curves
In this paper a new approach to the problem of fairing planar B-spline curves is introduced. We propose an algorithm based on a multi-level representation of cubic B-spline curves, which enables the identification of bad control points that need to be faired. The multi-level representation allows splitting a curve into its low resolution and details function parts. The details function permits ...
