Methods to recover constant radius rolling ball blends in reverse engineering
Reverse engineering of geometric shape is the process of converting large amounts of measured data points into concise and consistent computer representations of geometry. Applications include the reproduction of engineering parts with no available documentation or CAD definition for such purposes as redesign, analysis and visualisation. Other applications include the creation of various mating...

متن کاملThe Rolling Ball
Interactive graphics systems often need techniques that allow the user to rotate graphical objects freely in three-dimensional space using commonly-available two-dimensional input devices such as a mouse. Achieving this goal is hampered by the fact that there is no single natural mapping from the two parameters of the input device to the three-parameter space of orientations. Here we i n troduc...
متن کاملImproved Blends between Primitive Surfaces
By applying results on canal surfaces, we study exact rational parametrizations of fixed radius rolling ball blends of pairs of natural quadrics. We classify all configurations where this kind of rational parametrization is possible, and describe a general algorithm for parametrizing fixed radius rolling ball blends. The algorithm is then applied to parametrize the fixed radius rolling ball ble...
متن کاملReverse-engineering Cobol via formal methods
We describe methods and software tools which aid in reverse-engineering COBOL application programs back to the specification stage (and in validating them against the specification). The aim is to create object-oriented abstractions from the implementation which capture the design concepts accurately, and the central process which the tools support is ‘transformation from formalism to formalism...
