Symplectification of Circular Arcs and Arc Splines
Abstract
In this article, circular arcs are considered both individually and as elements of a piecewise circular curve. The endpoint parameterization proves to be quite advantageous here. The perspective of symplectic geometry provides new vectorial relationships for the circular arc. Curves are considered whose neighboring circular elements each have a common end point or, in addition, a common tangent. These arc splines prove to be a one-parameter curve family, whereby this parameter can be optimized with regard to various criteria.
