Detailed Description

Cubic curve primitive.

The evaluation of the field function at a given point in space is computationally expensive at the computation of the distance to the skeleton requires finding the roots of a quintic.

Example of how to code a Bezier primitive:

TreeNode *vertex=new TreeCubicCurve(Cubic::Hermite(1,4,0,-1),Cubic::Hermite(0,0,2,-2),Cubic::Hermite(0,4,1,1),new BlendCubic(2.0,1.0));

Member Function Documentation

Normal()

Vector TreeCubicCurve::Normal ( const Vector & p ) const

protectedvirtual

Compute the distance vector between a point in space and the curve.

This function computes the projection of a point p onto the curve by minimizing the distance function along the curve, expressed as a degree five polynomial.

Parameters

p
