α Extension of a Class of T-Bezier Curve

Article Preview

Abstract:

By introducing the concept of weights in NURBS curve into a blending technique,the paper extends the representation of the T-Bezier curve.The generalized T-Bezier curve is denoted as α Extension T-Bezier curve,whose shape-control capability is shown to be much better than that of T-Bezier curve.The representation and properties of the extension curve is studied.The curve is easy and intuitive to reshape by varying the parameters;so it is useful in some applications of CAD/CAM .
