Quasi-Newtonian methods for modeling of plan curve

Abstract

The paper is devoted to the methods of geometric modeling of plane curves given in the natural parameterization. The paper considers numerical modeling methods that make it possible to find the equation of curvature of the desired curve for different cases of the input data. The unknown curvature distribution coefficients of the required curve are determined by solving a system of nonlinear integral equations. Various numerical methods are considered to solve this nonlinear system. The results of computer implementation of the proposed methods for modeling two curvilinear contours with different initial data are presented. For the first curve, the input data are the coordinates of three points, the angles of inclination of the tangents at the extreme points and the linear law of curvature distribution. The second example considers an S-shaped curve with a quadratic law of curvature distributi.
