✦ Synopsis


Sections of parametric surfaces defined by equally spaced parameter values can be very unevenly spaced physically. This can cause practical problems when the surface is to be drawn or machined automatically. This paper describes a method for imposing a good parametrization on a curve constructed by B~zier's method and based on B-spline~ The extension of the method to the parametrization of surfaces is considered briefly.

Using the same technique as for the C-B-splines, two other forms of C-Bézier curves and a reformed formula for the subdivisions are proposed. With these new forms, C-Bézier curves can unify the processes for both the normal cases, and the limiting case (α → 0) with precise results. Like the C-B-spli

Parametrized polynomial spline curves are defined by an S-polygon, but locally they are Bdzier curves defined by a B-polygon. Two algorithms are given which construct one polygon from the other and vice versa. The generalization to surfaces is straightforward. This may be of some interest in CA D be
