چکیده
GB-spline curves can be considered as the generalization of B-spline curve incorporating a shape parameter into the polynomial basis functions. The geometric effect of the alteration of the shape parameter is discussed in this paper, including constrained shape control of the curve.

Constrained shape modification of cubic B-spline curves by means of knots
The effect of the modification of knot values on the shape of B-spline curves is examined in this paper. The modification of a knot of a Bspline curve of order k generates a one-parameter family of curves.This family has an envelope which is also a B-spline curve with the same control polygon and of order k 2 1: Applying this theoretical result, three shape control methods are provided for cubi...

متن کاملC 2 and G 2 continuous spline curves with shape parameters
Extensions of the classical B-spline curves by shape parameters are discussed in this paper. Using a method of linear blending, first we extend the abilities of GB-splines, originally defined by uniform shape parameter, to multiple shape parameters. Then two methods, having different types of continuity, are examined in terms of their curvature behavior.

متن کاملThe Effect of Knot Modifications on the Shape of B-spline Curves
This paper is devoted to the shape control of B-spline curves achieved by the modification of one of its knot values. At first those curves are described along which the points of a B-spline curve move under the modification of a knot value. Then we show that the one-parameter family of k order B-spline curves obtained by modifying a knot value has an envelope which is also a B-spline curve of ...
