BSpline1dNd Class

Bspline knots and poles for 1d-to-Nd.

  • The "pole" (aka control point) of this class is a block of poleLength numbers.
  • Derived classes (not this class) assign meaning such as x,y,z,w.
  • for instance, an instance of this class with poleLength===3 does not know if its poles are x,y,z or weighed 2D x,y,w

Methods

Name Description
constructor(numPoles: number, poleLength: number, order: number, knots: KnotVector): BSpline1dNd Protected initialize arrays for given spline dimensions.  
evaluateBasisFunctionsInSpan(spanIndex: number, spanFraction: number, f: Float64Array, df?: Float64Array, ddf?: Float64Array): void Evaluate the order basis functions (and optionally one or two derivatives) at a given fractional position within indexed span.  
evaluateBuffersAtKnot(u: number, numDerivative: number = 0): void Evaluate the function values and 1 or 2 derivatives into this.poleBuffer, this.poleBuffer1 and this.poleBuffer2  
evaluateBuffersInSpan(spanIndex: number, spanFraction: number): void * Evaluate the basis functions at spanIndex and fraction.  
evaluateBuffersInSpan1(spanIndex: number, spanFraction: number): void * Evaluate the basis functions and one derivative at spanIndex and fraction.  
getPoint3dPole(i: number, result?: Point3d): Point3d | undefined copy 3 values of pole i into a point.  
reverseInPlace(): void Reverse the (blocked) poles (in this.packedData in place.  
spanFractionToKnot(span: number, localFraction: number): number Map a span index and local fraction to knot value.  
sumPoleBuffer1ForSpan(spanIndex: number): void sum poles at span spanIndex by the weights in the poleBuffer1, i.e.  
sumPoleBuffer2ForSpan(spanIndex: number): void sum poles at span spanIndex by the weights in the poleBuffer2, i.e.  
sumPoleBufferForSpan(spanIndex: number): void sum poles at span spanIndex by the weights in the poleBuffer  
testCloseablePolygon(mode?: BSplineWrapMode): boolean Test if the leading and trailing polygon coordinates are replicated in the manner of a "closed" bspline polygon which has been expanded
to act as a normal bspline.
 
create(numPoles: number, poleLength: number, order: number, knots: KnotVector): BSpline1dNd | undefined Static create a 1Bspline1dNd`
