Cubic parametric curves of given tangent and curvature
نویسنده
چکیده
We propose a constructive solution to the problem of finding a cubic parametric curve in a plane if the tangent vectors (derivatives with respect to the parameter) and signed curvatures are given at its end-points but the end-points themselves are unknown. We also show how these curves can be applied to construct blending curves subject to curvature, arc length, inflection and area constraints.

An Optimal G^2-Hermite Interpolation by Rational Cubic Bézier Curves
In this paper, we study a geometric G^2 Hermite interpolation by planar rational cubic Bézier curves. Two data points, two tangent vectors and two signed curvatures interpolated per each rational segment. We give the necessary and the sufficient intrinsic geometric conditions for two C^2 parametric curves to be connected with G2 continuity. Locally, the free parameters w...
متن کاملGeometric Hermite Curves Based on Curvature Variation Minimization
Based on the smoothness criterion of minimum curvature variation of the curve, tangent angle constraints guaranteeing an optimized geometric Hermite (OGH) curve both mathematically and geometrically smooth is given, and new methods for constructing composite optimized geometric Hermite (COH) curves are presented in this paper. The comparison of the new methods with Yong and Cheng’s methods base...
متن کاملSpiral fat arcs - Bounding regions with cubic convergence
A bounding region for spiral curve segments shaped by two circular arcs, parts of the osculating circles at the spiral’s endpoints, and two lines is introduced. This bounding region, denoted Spiral Fat Arc (SFA) is simple to construct and process, and shows a cubic approximation order to a given spiral curve. Given a general planar parametric curve, it can be split at curvature extrema (and inf...
متن کاملA constructive framework for minimal energy planar curves
Given points P1, P2, . . . , Pn in the plane, we are concerned with the problem of finding a fair curve which interpolates the points. We assume that we have a method in hand, called a basic curve method, for solving the geometric Hermite interpolation problem of fitting a regular C∞ curve between two points with prescribed tangent directions at the endpoints. We also assume that we have an ene...
متن کاملA tracing method for parametric Bezier triangular surface/plane intersection
Surface/plane intersection problem is a special case of surface/surface intersection, and is an active area of research across many disciplines in computer-aided geometric design. This paper presents, in general the setting of derivational continuities, (i.e. C, C, and C), a surface/plane intersection algorithm for parametric Bézier triangular surface over triangular domain. The present algorit...
