β¦ Synopsis
Quadratic trigonometric polynomial curves with a shape parameter are presented in this paper. Analogous to the quadratic B-spline curves, the trigonometric polynomial curves are constructed with three consecutive control points for each curve segment and are C 1 continuous with a non-uniform knot vector. With the shape parameters, the trigonometric polynomial curves can yield tight envelopes for the quadratic B-spline curves and can be closer to the given control polygon than the quadratic B-spline curves. The trigonometric polynomial curves also can be decreased to linear trigonometric polynomial curves which can represent ellipses.

A cubic trigonometric BΓ©zier curve analogous to the cubic BΓ©zier curve, with two shape parameters, is presented in this work. The shape of the curve can be adjusted by altering the values of shape parameters while the control polygon is kept unchanged. With the shape parameters, the cubic trigonomet
The problem of drawing a smooth obstacle avoiding curve has attracted the attention of many people working in the area of CAD/CAM and its applications. In the present paper we propose a method of constrained curve drawing using certain C 1 -quadratic trigonometric splines having shape parameters, wh
In this paper, we construct a univariate quasi-interpolation operator to non-uniformly distributed data by cubic multiquadric functions. This operator is practical, as it does not require derivatives of the being approximated function at endpoints. Furthermore, it possesses univariate quadratic poly
We study the evolution of spiral-shaped polygonal curves by crystalline curvature. Crystalline curvature is known to extend the notion of ordinary curvature to the special class of nonsmooth curves. With the assumption of symmetry, we show that the motion of our spirals can be analyzed up to the res
