In this study we have examined, involute of the cubic Bezier curve based on the control points with matrix form in E3. Frenet vector fields and also curvatures of involute of the cubic Bezier curve are examined based on the Frenet apparatus of the first cubic Bezier curve in E3.

The paper introduces an analytical stiffness matrix method to model a new type of corrugated flexure (CF) beam with cubic Bézier curve segments. In order to satisfy particular design specifications, shape variation for limited geometric envelopes are often employed to alter the elastic properties of flexure hinges. In this paper, cubic Bézier curves are introduced to replace the axis of CF unit to rebuild the CF beam and the micro-positioning stage. Mohr’s integral method is applied to derive the stiffness matrix of the cubic Bézier curve segment. Modeling of the CF unit and the CF beam with cubic Bézier curve segments are further carried out through stiffness matrix method, which are confirmed by finite element analysis (FEA). Discussions about the two control points of the cubic Bézier curve segments are then conducted through search optimization, which highlights the off-axis/axial stiffness ratio and the axial compliance on the position of the two control points, to enable the micro-positioning stage both achieving high off-axis/axial stiffness ratio and large axial compliance. The derived analytical model provides a new option for the design of the CF beam.

Authentication is a process of identifying person’s rights over a system. Many authentication types are used in various systems, wherein biometrics authentication systems are of a special concern. Signature verification is a basic biometric authentication technique used widely. The signature matching algorithm uses image correlation and graph matching technique which provides false rejection or acceptance. We proposed a model to compare knowledge from signature. Intrusion in the signature repository system results in copy of the signature that leads to false acceptance. Our approach uses a Bezier curve algorithm to identify the curve points and uses the behaviors of the signature for verification. An analyzing mobile agent is used to identify the input signature parameters and compare them with reference signature repository. It identifies duplication of signature over intrusion and rejects it. Experiments are conducted on a database with thousands of signature images from various sources and the results are favorable.

In order to satisfy particular design specifications, shape variation for limited geometric envelopes is often employed to alter the elastic properties of flexure joints. This paper introduces an analytical stiffness matrix method to model a new type of corrugated flexure (CF) beam with cubic Bézier curve segments. The cubic Bézier curves are used to depict the segments combined to form CF beam and translational joint. Mohr's integral is applied to derive the local-frame compliance matrix of the cubic Bézier curve segment. The global-frame compliance matrices of the CF unit and the CF beam with cubic Bézier curve segments are further formed by stiffness matrix method, which are confirmed by finite element analysis (FEA). The control points of Bézier curve are chosen as optimization parameters to identify the optimal segment shape, which maximizes both high off-axis/axial stiffness ratio and large axial displacements of translational joint. The results of experimental study on the optimum translational joint design validate the proposed modeling and optimization method.
