一类特殊基函数构造的参数曲线

构造参数曲线曲面一直是计算机辅助几何设计研究的核心内容之一。以Bernstein基函数构造的Bézier曲线是参数曲线造型最基本的方法,B样条曲线和NURBS曲线都是在其基础上发展而来。利用给定的实数节点集,构造一类特殊的基函数,此类基函数是Bernstein基函数的推广。在此基础上,构造了一类新的参数曲线,称为T-Bézier曲线,T-Bézier曲线继承了有理Bézier曲线的若干性质;证明了当节点移动时极限曲线的几何性质,并通过实例进行了验证。

Low-harmonic rational Bézier curves for trajectory generation of high-speed machinery

For a given high-speed machinery, a significant source of the internally induced vibrational excitation is the presence of high frequency harmonics in the trajectories that the system is forced to follow. In this paper a special class of rational Bézier curves is presented that correspond to low-harmonic trajectory patterns. Harmonic Bernstein polynomials and harmonic deCasteljau algorithm are also introduced as two major tools for generating the harmonic rational Bézier curves. These curves can be used to synthesize trajectories within the dynamic response limitations of the actuators while avoiding the excitation of the natural modes of vibration of the system.     

Self-intersections of rational Bézier curves

Rational Bézier curves provide a curve fitting tool and are widely used in Computer Aided Geometric Design, Computer Aided Design and Geometric Modeling. The injectivity (one-to-one property) of rational Bézier curve as a mapping function is equivalent to the curve without self-intersections. We present a geometric condition on the control polygon which is equivalent to the injectivity of rational Bézier curve with this control polygon for all possible choices of weights. The proof is based on the degree elevation and toric degeneration of rational Bézier curve.     

A generalized unconstrained theory and isogeometric finite element analysis based on Bézier extraction for laminated composite plates

This work presents an isogeometric finite element formulation based on Bézier extraction of the non-uniform rational B-splines (NURBS) in combination with a generalized unconstrained higher-order shear deformation theory (UHSDT) for laminated composite plates. The proposed approach relaxes zero-shear stresses at the top and bottom surfaces of the plates and no shear correction factors are required. A weak form of static, free vibration and transient response analyses for laminated composite plates is then established and is numerically solved using isogeometric Bézier finite elements. NURBS can be written in terms of Bernstein polynomials and the Bézier extraction operator. IGA is implemented with the presence of C°-continuous Bézier elements which allow to easily incorporate into existing finite element codes without adding many changes as the former IGA. As a result, all computations can be performed based on the basis functions defined previously as the same way in finite element method (FEM). Numerical results performed over static, vibration and transient analysis show high efficiency of the present method.     

Conversion and evaluation for two types of parametric surfaces constructed by NTP bases

In this paper, a new generalized Ball basis, normalized totally positive (NTP) basis given by Delgado and Peña, is investigated. The conversion formulae between the basis and the Bernstein basis are derived. We also prove that these formulae not only are valuable for studying the geometric properties, such as subdivision, of the curves and surfaces constructed by this generalized Ball basis, but also can improve the computational speed of the Bézier curves and surfaces. After the Bézier surface (curve) is converted into the generalized Ball surface (curve), the time complexity for evaluation can be reduced from cubic to quadratic, of the degree of the surface (curve). However, the intrinsic property, such as shape-preserving property, is not changed. So, the generalized Ball surface and curve have a great future in application of geometric design.

Adaptive reconstruction of free-form surfaces using Bernstein basis function networks

Many computer graphics and computer-aided design (CAD) applications require mathematical models to be generated from measured coordinate data. The three-dimensional surface model of a complex object can be created by fitting the data with low-order parametric surface patches, and adjusting the control parameters such that the constituent patches meet seamlessly at their common boundaries. Most neural networks that are designed for function approximation produce a solution that is not easily transferable to CAD software. An adaptive technique to reconstruct a smooth surface from Bézier patches is presented in this paper. The approach utilizes a neural network that performs a weighted summation of Bernstein polynomial basis functions. The number of basis neurons is related to the degree of the Bernstein polynomials and is equivalent to the number of control parameters. Free-form surfaces are reconstructed by simultaneously updating networks that correspond to the separate patches. A smooth transition between adjacent Bézier surface patches is achieved by imposing positional and tangential continuity constraints on the weights during the adaptation process. The final weights of the various networks correspond to the control points of the stitched Bézier surface, and can therefore be used directly in many commercial CAD packages. This method has been used to create a closed surface by adaptively fitting two adjacent patches to synthetic range data and a complex open surface by fitting four patches to experimentally measured range data.     

一类带形状参数的类四次三角Bézier曲线

本文给出了带形状参数的类四次三角多项式Bézier曲线。由五个控制顶点生成的曲线不仅具有类似于四次Bézier曲线的诸多性质,而且其形状可由一个参数进行调节,使得该曲线具有更强的表现能力。参数有明确的几何意义:参数越大,曲线越逼近控制多边形,具有比四次Bézier曲线更好的逼近性。曲线无需有理形式即可精确表示圆、椭圆、抛物线等二次曲线弧。为便于自由曲线的设计,还讨论了两段曲线的拼接性,并给出了曲线G2和C3连续的拼接条件。应用实例表明,该曲线在计算机辅助几何设计中具有较高的应用价值。     

Generalizing rational degree elevation

A generalization of the well-known degree elevation algorithms for Bézier curves is presented. This generalized degree elevation extends the expressive power of rational polynomials. In particular, it allows a given curve to be represented equivalently by a family of control point and weight distributions, without affecting its parameterization. Some control over the control point distribution is demonstrated. The effects of reparameterization in conjunction with degree elevation are also explored, and techniques for detecting degeneracy in the presence of reparameterization are described.
