Open publisher page 3 citations

Abstract

A class of blending function of degree n+1(n≥1) with shape parameter is presented in this paper.It is an extension of the degree n Bezier curves basis function.Based on the blendin function,a method of generating piecewise ploynomial curves with a shap parameter is given.The properties of the curves and its blending functions are discussed.By changing the shape parameter value the shape of the constructed curves can be adjusted.With the elevation of degree of blending functions,feasible rang of the shape parameter value is extended.
