Interactive design of constrained variational curves
A constrained variational curve is a curve that minimizes some energy functional under certain interpolation constraints. Modeling curves using constrained variational principles is attractive, because the designer is not bothered with the precise representation of the curve (e.g. control points). Until now, the modeling of variational curves is mainly done by means of constraints. If such a cu...
متن کاملReduction for Constrained Variational Problems on 3d Null Curves
We consider the optimal control problem for null curves in de Sitter 3-space defined by a functional which is linear in the curvature of the trajectory. We show how techniques based on the method of moving frames and exterior differential systems, coupled with the reduction procedure for systems with a Lie group of symmetries lead to the integration by quadratures of the extremals. Explicit sol...
متن کاملInteractive design exploration for constrained meshes
In architectural design, surface shapes are commonly subject to geometric constraints imposed by material, fabrication or assembly. Rationalization algorithms can convert a freeform design into a form feasible for production, but often require design modifications that might not comply with the design intent. In addition, they only offer limited support for exploring alternative feasible shapes...
متن کاملVariational design of rational Bezier curves and surfaces
The design of curves and surfaces in C.A.D. systems has many applications in car, plane or ship industry. Because they offer more flexibility, rational functions are often prefered to polynomial functions to modelize curves and surfaces. In this work, several methods to generate rational Bezier curves and surfaces which minimize some functionals are proposed. The functionals measure a technical...
متن کاملSpecial issue on constrained design of curves and surfaces
It is indeed an honor and a pleasure to act as guest editors for this special issue on Constrained Design of Curves and Surfaces (CDCS). We would like to thank the editors of JCAD for supporting our view that generating, analyzing and modifying shapes is a process usually driven by a variety of constraints, whose methodological, algorithmic and computational handling deserves to obtain autonomy...
