public class UserPlaneCurveParametricKappa
extends PlaneCurveParametric
implements UserExhibit

A plane curve c(s) = (x(s),y(s)) is defined by its curvature function kappa(s). kappa(s) is to be entered by the user. The Frenet equation c''(s) = kappa(s)*normal(s) gives c'(s) = (cos(alpha(s)), sin(alpha(s)) ), where alpha'(s) = kappa(s). Therefore c(s) is obtained by a double integration. We use a precomputed antiderivative alphs of kappa, stored in helpArray. This reduces the double integration to a single one - and this is fast enough so that these Frenet curves behave as if they were given by an explicit parametrization. If tmin =< 0 =< tmax then alpha(0) = 0.

Method Detail

parameterChanged

public void parameterChanged(Parameter param,
                             java.lang.Object oldValue,
                             java.lang.Object newValue)

Description copied from class: Exhibit

This method will be called automatically when a parameter that has been added to this Exhibit is changed. It should not ordinarily be called directly. Note that in fact, this method simply calls forceRedraw. This method is defined in the <@link Parameterizable} interface.

Specified by:

parameterChanged in interface Parameterizable

Overrides:

parameterChanged in class Exhibit

Parameters:

param - The Parmeter whose value has been set.

oldValue - The previous value of the parameter.

newValue - The new, current value of the parameter. This is not necessarily guaranteed to be different from the old value (although it is for parameters definedin the VMM core).

xValue

public double xValue(double t)

Description copied from class: PlaneCurveParametric

Computes x(t) for a given value of t.

Specified by:

xValue in class PlaneCurveParametric

yValue

public double yValue(double t)

Description copied from class: PlaneCurveParametric

Computes y(t) for a given value of t.

Specified by:

yValue in class PlaneCurveParametric

xDerivativeValue

public double xDerivativeValue(double t)

Description copied from class: PlaneCurveParametric

Overrides:

x2ndDerivativeValue in class PlaneCurveParametric

y2ndDerivativeValue

public double y2ndDerivativeValue(double t)

Description copied from class: PlaneCurveParametric
