Development of Machinable Ellipses by NURBS Curves
نویسنده
چکیده
Owning to the high-speed feed rate and ultra spindle speed have been used in modern machine tools, the tool-path generation plays a key role in the successful application of a High-Speed Machining (HSM) system. Because of its importance in both high-speed machining and tool-path generation, approximating a contour by NURBS format is a potential function in CAD/CAM/CNC systems. It is much more convenient to represent an ellipse by parametric form than to connect points laboriously determined in a CNC system. A new approximating method based on optimum processes and NURBS curves of any degree to the ellipses is presented in this study. Such operations can be the foundation of tool-radius compensation interpolator of NURBS curves in CNC system. All operating processes for a CAD tool is presented and demonstrated by practical models. Keywords—Ellipse, Approximation, NURBS, Optimum.

متن کاملWeight-based shape modification of NURBS curves
We address the problem of how to perform prescribed shape modification of NURBS curves merely by the modification of the weight of some of their control points. As is known, NURBS curves can be considered as central projections of nonrational B-spline curves. Making use of the property that there is an infinite number of nonrational B-spline curves the central projection of which is a given NUR...

This paper presents a method for the direct manipulations of B-spline and non-uniform rational B-splines (NURBS) curves using geometric constraints. A deformable model is developed to define the deformation energy functional of B-spline and NURBS curves. The finite element method is used to minimize the deformation energy functional and solve for the deformed shape of curves subjected to constr...
متن کاملFull Analytical Sensitivities in NURBS based Isogeometric Shape Optimization
Non-uniform rational B-spline (NURBS) has been widely used as an effective shape parameterization technique for structural optimization due to its compact and powerful shape representation capability and its popularity among CAD systems. The advent of NURBS based isogeometric analysis has made it even more advantageous to use NURBS in shape optimization since it can potentially avoid the inaccu...
متن کاملKnot modification of B-spline curves
The effect of knot modifications on the shape of B-spline and NURBS curves is discussed in this paper. Theoretical results include the description of the path of curve points, obtained by the modification of a knot value, and the examination of the one-parameter family of curves. It is shown that this family has an envelope which is a lower order B-spline or NURBS curve. Applying these results ...
