In this article, an algorithm has been established to approximate parametric-parametric, explicit-implicit, and explicit-explicit surface intersection. Foremost, it extracts the characteristic points (boundary and turning points) from the sequence of intersection points and fits an optimal cubic spline curve to these points. Moreover, this paper utilizes genetic algorithm (GA) for optimization of shape parameters in the portrayal of cubic spline so that the error is minimal. The proposed algorithm is demonstrated with different types of surfaces to analyze its robustness and proficiency. In the end, all illustrations show the effectiveness of the algorithm which makes it more influential to resolve all complexities arises during intersection with a minimal error.

In this paper, the three-dimensional (3D) four-step ([Formula: see text]) rectangular braided composites are analyzed, the internal yarn spatial topology and mechanical model are determined, a new geometric model, which uses a cubic spline curve to fit yarn trajectory, is presented. The new geometric model can be divided into three types of unit cell models which are the interior, surface and corner unit cell. Based on the new proposed geometric model and the stiffness averaging theory, the corresponding elastic constants are predicted. The predicted numerical results are calculated, and compared with the experimental results. Numerical examples indicate that the numerical calculations well agree with the experimental results. Error values between numerical calculations and experimental results are less than 7.5%. The numerical results verify the validity and accuracy of the new geometrical model.

A rational cubic spline, with one family of shape parameters, has been discussed with the view to its application in Computer Graphics. It incorporates both conic sections and parametric cubic curves as special cases. The parameters (weights), in the description of the spline curve can be used to modify the shape of the curve, locally and globally, at the knot intervals. The rational cubic spline attains parametric   smoothness whereas the stitching of the conic segments preserves visually reasonable smoothness at the neighboring knots. The curve scheme is interpolatory and can plot parabolic, hyperbolic, elliptic, and circular splines independently as well as bits and pieces of a rational cubic spline.Key Words: Computer Graphics, Interpolation, Spline, Conic, Rational Cubic
