Properties of the Wilson-Fowler spline
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5090134
The Wilson-Fowler spline, a piecewise cubic curve with continuous tangent and curvature, is described. The spline is used in the APT numerical machining program and several CAD-CAM systems. This report gives information on existence, uniqueness, invariance properties, and gives some comparison with other spline types. Fortran subroutines are included.
