A parametric quartic spline interpolant to position, tangent and curvature (Q1885203): Difference between revisions

The authors propose a new generalization of the BHS scheme of [\textit{C. de Boor}, \textit{K. Höllig} and \textit{M. Sabin} [Comput. Aided Geom. Des. 4, 269--278 (1987; Zbl 0646.65004)] for interpolating given tangent vectors and curvature values at distinct' positions by a curvature continuous parametric quartic spline. Like the BHS scheme, the presented scheme preserves convexity and is 6-th order accurate, but the use of quartics instead of cubics simplifies the restrictions placed on the data and permits an interpolant that depends continuously on the data.
