Second Order Nurbs Interpolation of Real Affine and Projective Plane Curves
نویسنده
چکیده
A method is presented to interpolate real affine plane curves with second degree NURBS (Non Uniform Rational Bezier Splines). The curve into object is initially partitioned into an arbitrary number of arcs. Then each arc is approximated with a conic section passing thru its extremes, thru a third intermediate point and being tangent to the arc at the extremes. Each arc is then parameterized by a second degree NURBS whose coefficients are computed in order to exactly fit the conic. Finally, the resulting NURBS arcs are joined together to form a unique global curve. The method is capable to manage also non-simple (i.e. self-intersecting), non-regular (i.e. piece wise differentiable) curves. A generalization of the method is also presented, capable to manage curve arcs containing improper points. This procedure, fully deploying NURBS interpolation capabilities, is theoretically set in the framework of real projective geometry.

Real Plane Algebraic Curves
We study real algebraic plane curves, at an elementary level, using as little algebra as possible. Both cases, affine and projective, are addressed. A real curve is infinite, finite or empty according to the fact that a minimal polynomial for the curve is indefinite, semi–definite nondefinite or definite. We present a discussion about isolated points. By means of the operator, these points can ...
متن کاملNURBS , Spline Surfaces and Blossoming in Two - dimensions
In this lecture we generalize the polar form and blossoming and introduce NURBS(non-uniform rational B-spline), then we extend the discussion to 2D about surfaces. 1 NURBS NURBS is an industry standard tool for the representation and design of geometry. It is the non-uniform and rational extension of B-splines. We will introduce these properties one by one using blossoming. A cubic polar form i...
متن کاملQuasiconformal distortion of projective transformations and discrete conformal maps
We consider the quasiconformal dilatation of projective transformations of the real projective plane. For non-affine transformations, the contour lines of dilatation form a hyperbolic pencil of circles, and these are the only circles that are mapped to circles. We apply this result to analyze the dilatation of the circumcircle preserving piecewise projective interpolation between discretely con...
متن کاملProjective Root-Locus: An Extension of Root-Locus Plot to the Projective Plane
In this paper we present an extension of the classical Root-Locus (RL) method where the points are calculated in the real projective plane instead of the conventional affine real plane; we denominate this extension of the Root-Locus as “Projective Root-Locus (PjRL)”. To plot the PjRL we use the concept of “Gnomonic Projection” in order to have a representation of the projective real plane as a ...
متن کاملFinite Laguerre Near-planes of Odd Order Admitting Desarguesian Derivations
From this definition it readily follows that a Laguerre plane of order n has n + 1 generators, that every circle contains exactly n + 1 points and that there are n3 circles. All known models of finite Laguerre planes are of the following form. Let O be an oval in the Desarguesian projective plane P2 = PG(2, pm), p a prime. Embed P2 into threedimensional projective space P3 = PG(3, pm) and let v...
