Adopting a recurrence technique, generalized trigonometric basis (or GT-basis, for short) functions along with two shape parameters are formulated in this paper. These basis functions carry a lot of geometric features of classical Bernstein basis functions and maintain the shape of the curve and surface as well. The generalized trigonometric Bézier (or GT-Bézier, for short) curves and surfaces are defined on these basis functions and also analyze their geometric properties which are analogous to classical Bézier curves and surfaces. This analysis shows that the existence of shape parameters brings a convenience to adjust the shape of the curve and surface by simply modifying their values. These GT-Bézier curves meet the conditions required for parametric continuity (C0, C1, C2, and C3) as well as for geometric continuity (G0, G1, and G2). Furthermore, some curve and surface design applications have been discussed. The demonstrating examples clarify that the new curves and surfaces provide a flexible approach and mathematical sketch of Bézier curves and surfaces which make them a treasured way for the project of curve and surface modeling.

AbstractThis study is based on some $C^{1}$ C 1 , $C^{2}$ C 2 , and $C^{3}$ C 3 continuous computer-based surfaces that are modeled by using generalized blended trigonometric Bézier (shortly, GBT-Bézier) curves with shape parameters. Initially, generalized blended trigonometric Bernstein-like (shortly, GBTB) basis functions with two shape parameters are derived in explicit expression which satisfied the basic geometric features of the traditional Bernstein basis functions. Moreover, the GBT-Bézier curves and tensor product GBT-Bézier surfaces with two shape parameters are also presented. All geometric features of the proposed GBT-Bézier curves and surfaces are similar to the traditional Bézier curves and surfaces, but the shape-adjustment is the additional feature that the traditional Bézier curves and surfaces do not hold. Finally, a class of some complex computer-based engineering surfaces via GBT-Bézier curves with shape parameters is presented. In addition, two adjacent GBT-Bézier surfaces segments are connected by higher $C^{2}$ C 2 and $C^{3}$ C 3 continuity constraints than the existing only $C^{1}$ C 1 shape adjustable Bézier surfaces. Some practical examples are provided to show the efficiency of the proposed scheme and to prove it as another powerful way for the construction and modeling of various complex composite computer-based engineering surfaces using higher-order continuities.

The main objective of this paper is to construct the various shapes and font designing of curves and to describe the curvature by using parametric and geometric continuity constraints of generalized hybrid trigonometric Bézier (GHT-Bézier) curves. The GHT-Bernstein basis functions and Bézier curve with shape parameters are presented. The parametric and geometric continuity constraints for GHT-Bézier curves are constructed. The curvature continuity provides a guarantee of smoothness geometrically between curve segments. Furthermore, we present the curvature junction of complex figures and also compare it with the curvature of the classical Bézier curve and some other applications by using the proposed GHT-Bézier curves. This approach is one of the pivotal parts of construction, which is basically due to the existence of continuity conditions and different shape parameters that permit the curve to change easily and be more flexible without altering its control points. Therefore, by adjusting the values of shape parameters, the curve still preserve its characteristics and geometrical configuration. These modeling examples illustrate that our method can be easily performed, and it can also provide us an alternative strong strategy for the modeling of complex figures.

Shape controlling is a popular topic in curves and surfaces design with free form. In this paper, a new curve, to be called Biquadratic TC-Bézier curves with shape parameter , is constructed in the space . We show that such curves share the same properties as the traditional Bézier curves in polynomial spaces. The shape of new curves, representing circle and ellipse accurately, can be adjusted by changing the value of the parameter . Then we give the G1 continuity conditions of Biquadratic TC-Bézier curves with shape parameter and its application in surfaces modeling.
