The modification of a knot of a B-spline curve of order k generates a family of B-spline curves. We show that an envelope of this family is a B-spline curve defined by the same control polygon, and its order is km, where m is the multiplicity of the modified knot. Moreover, their arbitrary order der
We present an algorithm that computes the convex hull of multiple rational curves in the plane. The problem is reformulated as one of finding the zero-sets of polynomial equations in one or two variables; using these zero-sets we characterize curve segments that belong to the boundary of the convex
