Continuous connection of two adjacent pipe parts defined by line, bezier and hermit center curves

摘要

A shape of pipe part consist of the longitudinal and cross section boundary curve. Also, it can be defined by only its center curve of the pipe. To build a complete pipe, we can connect continually the pipe parts. This paper discuss about continuous connection of two adjacent pipe parts that are defined by line, Bezier and Hermit curves. The method is as follows, we join continually two adjacent center curves of the pipe parts and then by using the same formulae, we define its coincidence cross section boundary curves of the pipes. Finally, the joining of the longitudinal section boundary curves of the pipe parts can be done. The results of this study show that we can evaluate the joint continuity between two adjacent pipe parts defined by line, Bezier and Hermit curves, using the various forms of its center and cross-longitudinal section boundary curves.
