Inflection points and singularities on C-curves
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that all so-called C-curves are affine images of trochoids or sine curves and use this relation to investigate the occurrence of inflection points, cusps, and loops. The results are summarized in a shape diagram of C-Bézier curves, which is useful when using C-Bézier curves for curve and surface modeling. 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Inflection points and singularities on planar rational cubic curve segments
We obtain the distribution of inflection points and singularities on a parametric rational cubic curve segment with aid of Mathematica (A System of for Doing Mathematics by Computer). The reciprocal numbers of the magnitudes of the end slopes determine the occurrence of inflection points and singularities on the segment. Its use enables us to check whether the segment has inflection points or a...
متن کاملTree-like Curves and Their Number of Inflection Points
In this short note we give a criterion when a planar tree-like curve, i.e. a generic curve in R 2 each double point of which cuts it into two disjoint parts, can be send by a diffeomorphism of R 2 onto a curve with no inflection points. We also present some upper and lower bounds for the minimal number of inflection points on such curves unremovable by diffeomorphisms of R 2. §1. Introduction T...

متن کاملComputing real inflection points of cubic algebraic curves
Shape modeling using planar cubic algebraic curves calls for computing the real inflection points of these curves since inflection points represents important shape feature. A real inflection point is also required for transforming projectively a planar cubic algebraic curve to the normal form, in order to facilitate further analysis of the curve. However, the naive method for computing the inf...
متن کاملAn Fio Calculus for Marine Seismic Imaging, Ii: Sobolev Estimates
We establish sharp L2-Sobolev estimates for classes of pseudodifferential operators with singular symbols [27, 20] whose non-pseudodifferential (Fourier integral operator) parts exhibit two-sided fold singularities. The operators considered include both singular integral operators along curves in R2 with simple inflection points and normal operators arising in linearized seismic imaging in the ...
