The ubiquitous ball spline. Basically, it is a type of mechanical element used in a variety of industrial applications where precise movement and alignment is required, like machine tools, robot arms ...

Ball splines and bearings: each play a role in mechanical function, and each are unique. All types of machinery are provided with supports for rotating shafts, and that supporting device is a ...

Abstract: We introduce a new model of parametric contours defined in a continuous fashion. Our curve model relies on Hermite spline interpolation and can easily generate curves with sharp ...

ABSTRACT: This paper is devoted to numerically solving the Burgers’ equation in unbounded region, which describes the nonlinear wave propagation and diffusion effect. How to numerically and ...

If you look at the source of extensible_splines/splines.py you will notice that the most commonly used varieties of spline can be defined with only one or two of four ...

The first example is the function φ(x,y)=sin(4.0*sqrt(x^2+y^2)) defined in the region Ω=[-1,1]x[-1,1]. We'll construct an interpolating normal spline using this function and its gradient values ...
