A shift-add algorithm for generating B-spline
Journal Title: Computer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science - Year 2013, Vol 20, Issue 4
Abstract
A CORDIC- based shift-add algorithm for generating B-spline curves is presented in this paper. This algorithm can be realized by hardware without multiplier, or coded with assembly language and run in the basic computing system which exists in many application systems. Convergence of the algorithm was proved. Errors were estimated and well controlled in the algorithm. A numerical experiment was carried out to validate algorithm. This algorithm can be used for adding complex curve plotting functions in embedded systems.

Simulation of contact forces and contact characteristics during meshing of elastic beveloid gears.
Beveloid gears, also known as conical involute gears with very complex tooth shapes, gain more and more importance in industrial practice due to their ability to realize gear stages with crossed axes. This is why they ar...
Convergence estimates for the acoustic scattering problem approximated by NURBS
The paper contains some estimates of an approximation to the solution of the problem of acoustic waves's scattering by an elastic obstacle in two dimensions. The problem is approximated by the isogeometric adaptive metho...
