public interface CirculinearCurve2D
extends CirculinearShape2D, Curve2D

Circulinear curve are composed of linear and/or circular elements. Linear elements are line segments, straight lines, rays... Circular elements are circles and circle arcs.

Circulinear curves provide a convenient way to store result of geometric operation like buffer computation. Moreover, the set of circulinear curves is stable with respect to circle inversion.

Method Detail

getLength

double getLength()
Returns:
the length of the curve

getLength

double getLength(double pos)
Returns:
the length from the beginning to the position given by pos

getPosition

double getPosition(double length)
Returns:
the position located at distance 'length' from the origin

getParallel

Curve2D getParallel(double d)
Creates a new curve, formed by the points with parameterization: p(t) = c(t) + d*n(t)/|n(t)|, with p(t) being a point of the original curve, n(t) the normal of the curve, and |n| being the norm of n.
In the case of a continuous curve formed by several smooth circulinear elements, the parallels of contiguous elements are joined by a circle arc.

Parameters:
d - the distance between the original curve and he parallel curve.
Returns:
the parallel curve

transform

Curve2D transform(CircleInversion2D inv)
Description copied from interface: CirculinearShape2D
Transforms the shape by a circle inversion. The result is still an instance a CirculinearShape2D.

Specified by:
transform in interface CirculinearShape2D
Parameters:
inv - the circle inversion
Returns:
the transformed shape

getContinuousCurves

Collection<? extends CirculinearContinuousCurve2D> getContinuousCurves()
Returns the collection of continuous circulinear curves which constitute this curve.

Specified by:
getContinuousCurves in interface Curve2D
Returns:
a collection of continuous circulinear curves.

clip

CurveSet2D clip(Box2D box)
Description copied from interface: Shape2D
Clip the shape with the given box, and returns a new shape. The box must be bounded.

Specified by:
clip in interface Curve2D
Specified by:
clip in interface Shape2D
Parameters:
box - the clipping box
Returns:
the clipped shape

getSubCurve

Curve2D getSubCurve(double t0,
                    double t1)
Description copied from interface: Curve2D
Returns a portion of the original curve, delimited by two positions on the curve.

Specified by:
getSubCurve in interface Curve2D
Parameters:
t0 - position of the start of the sub-curve
t1 - position of the end of the sub-curve
Returns:
the portion of original curve comprised between t0 and t1.

getReverseCurve

Curve2D getReverseCurve()
Description copied from interface: Curve2D
Returns the curve with same trace on the plane with parametrization in reverse order.

Specified by:
getReverseCurve in interface Curve2D
