- Title
Rational bi-cubic G<sup>2</sup> splines for design with basic shapes.
- Authors
Karčiauskas, Kȩstutis; Peters, Jörg
- Abstract
The paper develops a rational bi-cubic G2 (curvature continuous) analogue of the non-uniform polynomial C2 cubic B-spline paradigm. These rational splines can exactly reproduce parts of multiple basic shapes, such as cyclides and quadrics, in one by default smoothly-connected structure. The versatility of this new tool for processing exact geometry is illustrated by conceptual design from basic shapes.
