A novel algorithm, called the edge determination algorithm, for exact computation of the frequency response of a linear interval system is proposed. The algorithm formulates candidate curves for the frequency response boundaries as cubic Bezier curves. The edge determination algorithm operates on the cubic Bezier control points of these curves to obtain those, or their parts, that are on the frequency response boundaries. It presents the frequency response boundaries as an array whose entries are the cubic Bezier control points of the curves on the boundaries. Examples for two different cases are presented to illustrate the mechanics and validity of the algorithm.

Abstract This paper presents G1 and G2 continuity conditions of c-Bezier curves. It shows that the collinear condition for G1 continuity of Bezier curves is generally no longer necessary for c-Bezier curves. Such a relaxation of constraints on control points is beneficial from the structure of c-Bezier curves. By using vector weights, each control point has two extra free design parameters, which offer the probability of obtaining G1 and G2 continuity by only adjusting the weights if the control points are properly distributed. The enlargement of control point distribution region greatly simplifies the design procedure to and enhances the shape control on constructing composite curves.

Besides inheriting the properties of classical Bézier curves of degreen, the correspondingλ-Bézier curves have a good performance in adjusting their shapes by changing shape control parameter. In this paper, we derive an approximation algorithm for multidegree reduction ofλ-Bézier curves in theL2-norm. By analysing the properties ofλ-Bézier curves of degreen, a method which can deal with approximatingλ-Bézier curve of degreen+1byλ-Bézier curve of degreem  (m≤n)is presented. Then, in unrestricted andC0,C1constraint conditions, the new control points of approximatingλ-Bézier curve can be obtained by solving linear equations, which can minimize the least square error between the approximating curves and the original ones. Finally, several numerical examples of degree reduction are given and the errors are computed in three conditions. The results indicate that the proposed method is effective and easy to implement.
