  • In this paper we find an explicit form of upper bound of Hausdorff distance between given cubic spline curve and its quadratic spline approximation. As an application the approximation of offset curve of cubic spline curve is presented using our explicit error analysis. The offset curve of quadratic spline curve is exact rational spline curve of degree six, which is also an approximation of the offset curve of cubic spline curve.

  • A cubic spline trajectory planner with arc-length parameter is formulated with estimation by summing up to the 3rd order in Taylor's expansion. The PVAJT motion planning is presented to reduce trajectory calculation time at every cycle time of servo control loop so that it is able to generate cubic spline trajectory in real time. This method can be used to more complex spline trajectory. Several case studies are executed with different values of cycle time and sampling time, and showed the advantages of the PVAJT motion planner. A DSP-based motion controller is designed to implement the PVAJT motion planning.

  • This paper presents properties of piecewise cubic B-spline function and Rayleigh-Ritz method to compute the smallest eigenvales. In order to compute the smallest eigenvalues, Rayleigh quotient approach is used and four different types of finite element approximating functions corresponding to the statical deflection curve, spanned by the linearly independent set of piecewise cubic B-spline functions with equally spaced 5 knots from a partion of [0, 1], each satisfying homogeneous boundary conditions with constraining effects are used to compute the smallest eigenvalues for a Sturm-Lionville boundary equations of u"+ λ²u=0, u(0.0)=u(0.0)=0, 0≤x≤1.0.

  • A parametric cubic spline interpolating at fixed number of nodes is constructed by formulating a parametric cubic $g^2$ B-splines $S_3(t)$ with not equally spaced parametric knots. Since the fact that each component is in $C^2$ class is not enough to provide the geometric smoothness of parametric curves, the existence of $S_3(t)$ oriented toward the modified second-order geometric continuity is focalized in our work.

  • The application of cubic spline is presented for basic curve (DRD motion) of cam motion. The purpose of this paper is to achieve better dynamic characteristics than general cam curves. A cubic spline is a piecewise function that is continuous in displacement, velocity and acceleration. The best cam curve is obtained by changing the weights of the object function. So the method can be used to any machine system case by case. For the proposed object function, the result has improved all characteristics such as velocity, acceleration and jerk compared with that of the modified sine curve.

  • We make use of cubic B-spline interpolation function in two cases: heat conduction and fluid flow problems. Cubic B-spline test function is employed because it is superior to approximation of linear and non-linear problems. We investigated the accuracy of the numerical formulation and focused on the position of the breakpoints within the computational domain. When the domain is divided by partitions of equal space, the results show poor accuracy. For the case of a heat conduction problem this partition can not reflect the temperature gradient which is rapidly changed near the wall. To correct the problem, we have more grid points near the wall or the region which has a rapid change of variables. When we applied the unequally spaced breakpoints, the results show high accuracy. Based on the comparison of the linear problem, we extended to the highly non-linear fluid flow problems.

  • The calculation of earthwork plays a major role in the planning and design phases of many civil engineering projects, such as seashore reclamation; thus, improving the accuracy of earthwork calculation has become very important. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for finding a cubic spline surface with the free boundary conditions, which interpolates the given three-dimensional data, by using B-spline and an accurate method to estimate pit-excavation volume. The proposed method should be of interest to surveyors, especially those concerned with accuracy of volume computations. The mathematical models of the conventional methods have a common drawback: the modeling curves form peak points at the joints. To avoid this drawback, the cubic spline polynomial is chosen as the mathematical model of the new method. In this paper, we propose an algorithm of finding a spline surface, which interpolates the given data, and an appropriate method to calculate the earthwork. We present some computational results that show the proposed method, of the Maple program, provides better accuracy than the method presented by Chen and Lin.

  • Hull form can be described numerically by two approaches, one is to describe a hull form with a set of curves("curve approach"), and the other is to describe it with surfaces directly("surface approach"). This paper describes the numerical definition scheme of hull form using curve approach method which defines the hull form by a set of curves consisting of 2-dimensional transverse section curves and 3-dimensional longitudinal curves. A set of curves in the hull form definition scheme is described by the modified cubic spline which modified the general parametric cubic spline in order to ensure a very smooth curvature distribution within the curve segment even though a curve segment has large tangent angle at its end points. Illustrative examples are given showing the application of the method to represent the hull form of SWATH ship and oceanographic research vessel. Also, examples for hull form transformation are shown by using this method connected with transformation technique.

  • This paper propose a new detection method of curve lane using Catmull-Rom spline for recognition various shape of the curve lane. To improve the accracy of lane detection, binarization and thinning process are firstly performed on the input image. Next, features on the curve lane such as curvature and orientation are extracted, and the control points of Catmull-Rom spline are detected to recognize the curve lane. Finally, Computer simulation results are given using a natural test image to show the efficiency of the proposed scheme.

  • In this paper, we introduce the implied volatility from Black-Scholes model and suggest a model for constructing implied volatility surfaces by using the two-dimensional cubic (bi-cubic) spline. In order to utilize a spline method, we acquire grid (knot) points. To this end, we first extract implied volatility curves weighted by trading contracts from market option data and calculate grid points from the extracted curves. At this time, we consider several conditions to avoid arbitrage opportunity. Then, we establish an implied volatility surface, making use of the two-dimensional cubic spline method with previously estimated grid points. The method is shown to satisfy several properties of the implied volatility surface (smile, skew, and flattening) as well as avoid the arbitrage opportunity caused by simple match with market data. To show the merits of our proposed method, we conduct simulations on market data of S&P500 index European options with reasonable and acceptable results.
