Next: Distance Tolerance Up: Fairing of B-Spline Curves Previous: The New Control Point
The best location has now be found by changing a control point. Solving the
next problem is to determine the faired control point. That means we have to
find the index of the control point.
We want to change the control point where the largest improvement of the
fairness functional is given. We call this improvement
ranking-number. Following up some calculations we obtain by inserting
the control point
(14)
This ranking-number is a weighted function of the squared change of control
point .
The ranking-numbers have to be calculated for all involved control in order to
find the largest improvement. This ranking-list then has to be sorted.
The whole ranking-list has to be calculated only in the first step for all
control points because the control point
influences
only the ranking-numbers with the index
and these ranking-numbers only have to be recalculated in the following step. |
