Abstract

En 中文
We describe how to construct conic blending arcs from constraints, using a unified rational parametric representation that combines the separate cases of blending parallel and non-parallel edges. The possible constraints are that the are must have a given distance from a line, a point, or a circle, or else intersect a circle or a line at a prescribed angle. Our representation is easily converted into a rational B-spline with positive weights, and is therefore compatible with internal representations used by most solid modeling systems. Finally, we discuss how we integrated this work with an algebraic constraint solver.
