Detailed Description

Defines 3D offset curve.

An offset curve is defined by a basis curve, reference direction and offset value.

The following image depicts an example of a planar offset curve:

Offset Curve

A basis curve must be at least G1-continous, otherwise behavior is undefined (most likely an exception will be thrown).

An offset curve is parametrized as follows: \(\mathbf{C}(t) = \mathbf{B}(t) + \mathrm{offset}\cdot\mathbf{V}(t)\), where

• \(\mathbf{B}(t)\) is a point on a basis curve at parameter \(t\);
• \(\mathrm{offset}\) is an offset value;
• \(\mathbf{V}(t)\) is a unit vector defined as \(\frac{\mathbf{B}'(t) \times \mathbf{D}}{\|\mathbf{B}'(t) \times \mathbf{D}\|}\),
• \(\mathbf{D}\) is a specified reference direction,
• \(\mathbf{B}'(t)\) is first derivative vector computed on a basis curve at parameter \(t\).

If the basis curve is planar and reference direction \(\mathbf{D}\) is perpendicular to a plane of the basis curve, then the offset curve also belongs to that plane and is shifted by \(\mathrm{offset}\) value from the basis curve.

IsPeriodic() returns a value returned by the basis curve.

inline

If theBasisCurve is an offset curve then its basis curve will be used as a basis curve and offset will be a sum of theOffset and the offset value of the theBasisCurve.

theBasisCurve must be at least G1-continuous, otherwise behavior is undefined. Constructor.
