IntegratedSpiral3d Class

An IntegratedSpiral3d is a curve defined by integrating its curvature.

  • The first integral of curvature (with respect to distance along the curve) is the bearing angle (in radians)
  • Integrating (cos(theta), sin(theta)) gives displacement from the start point, and thus the actual curve position.
  • The curvature functions of interest are all symmetric snap functions in the NormalizedTransition class.
  • TransitionConditionalProperties implements the computations of the interrelationship of radii, bearing, and length.
