The boundary curves are first approximated by G 1 -biarc splines within a given error bound > 0. A superset of Minkowski sum boundary is then generated using the biarc approximations. ...

Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics
We illustrate almost all the methods discussed with diagrams. ...
We start with methods invented by Newton (1643-1727) and Lagrange (1736 -1813) and proceed to recent methods that are the subject of current research. ...
The biarc is useful in situations where circular arcs are desirable curves, such as in machining where a circular arc is a natural and easy-to-cut curve. ...

Generating parametric models of tubes from laser scans

Computer-Aided Design
Our main contributions are reconstruction of the spine curve of a pipe surface from surface samples, and approximation of the spine curve by G 1 continuous circular arcs and line segments. ...
Biarcs, first introduced in [21] , are easier to handle than regular arcs, because both endpoint tangents of a biarc can be chosen independently. ...
In the general case, a biarc with fixed end points and tangents has only one degree of freedom for choosing the junction point. Now consider a biarc with coinciding start and end points and tangents. ...
