The NURBS surfaces are widely employed for exchanging geometric models between different CAD/CAE systems. However if the input NURBS surfaces are poorly parameterized, most surface meshing algorithms may fail or the constructed meshes can be ill-conditioned. In this paper presents a new method is presented that can generate well conditioned meshes even on poorly parameterized NURBS surfaces by regenerating NURBS surfaces. To begin with, adequate Points are sample on original poorly parameterized surfaces and new surfaces are created by interpolating these points. And then. mesh generation is performed on new surfaces. With this method, models with poorly parameterized NURBS surfaces can be meshed successfully.

The purpose of this research is to find a simple and accurate NURBS interpolator for CNC systems such as robot, CMM and CNC machine tools. This paper presents a new design of NURBS interpolator for CNC system. The proposed algorithm used the recursive characteristics of NURBS equation, the previous incremental value and chord length for the sake of a constant chord length. Simulation study was conducted to see the performance of the proposed interpolator with reference-word and reference-pulse method. Consequently, an accurate and simple NURBS interpolator was possible for modem CNC systems.

In CNC machining, a free curve is cut into small linear segments using the linear interpolation(G01) method. Therefore, the interpolation error along the curve is not constant due to the changing curvature. This paper presents a NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline) interpolation algorithm for machining free curves with high precision and high speed. The proposed NURBS interpolation defines the tool path with NURBS parameters and limits the interpolation error to any desired level by adjusting the feed rate considering the curvature of the shape and sampling time. Both linear and NURBS interpolations are compared to show the validity of the proposed algorithm.

NURBS (Non Uniform Rational B-Spline) is widely used in CAD system and NC data for high speed machining. Conventional CAM system changes NURBS surface to tessellated meshes or Z-map model, and produces linear tool path. The linear tool path is not good fur precise machining and high speed machining. In this paper, an algorithm to change linear tool path to NURBS one was studied and the machining result of NURBS tool path was compared with that of linear tool path. The N-post including both a post-processing and a virtual machining software was developed. The N-Post transforms linear tool path to NURBS tool path and quickly shades a machined product on OpenGL view, while comparing a machined surface with a original CAD one. A virtulal machined model of original tool path and post-processed tool path was compared to original CAD model. The machining error and machining time of post-processed NURBS tool path were investigated.

In many CAD systems, NURBS has been employed to construct exact geometries. Recently, NURBS finite element analysis methods were proposed by some authors for convenient connection between CAD and finite element analysis. Additional advantages of NURBS FEA, such as exact geometry and no mesh generation, are obtained. However, NURBS is inefficient in local refinement and merging patches. For refinement of local region in interest, additional control points should be inserted into the entire row or column which contains the local region. There is another inefficiency of NURBS during merging patches into a large structure due to propagation of control points. In order to overcome these inefficiencies of NURBS, T-spline was proposed by Sederberg. In this work, T-spline based finite element method is proposed for efficient local refinement and merging patches. At first, accuracy and efficiency of NURBS FEA is verified and efficiency of T-spline FEA is verified by comparing with NURBS FEA.

본 논문에서는 트림영역이 있는 NURBS 평면을 등기하 해석할 수 있는 방법을 제시한다. 기존 등기하 해석법으로 트림 NURBS 곡면을 해석하기 위해서는 해석 도메인이 여러 개의 사각형 패치로 분할되어있어야 한다. 그러나 본 연구에서 제안한 방법은 CAD에서 제공하는 트림곡선의 정보를 해석에 직접 사용할 수 있기 때문에 CAD 모델을 별도로 재구성해야하는 번거로움이 없다. NURBS 곡선 투영법을 이용하여 트림되는 요소를 찾고, 트림된 요소는 쿼드트리 분할법과 NEFEM에서 사용된 적분방법을 동시에 고려하면 어떤 경우의 트림 요소라도 적분이 가능하다. 다양한 수치 예제를 통하여 제안한 해석 방법을 검증하고, 기존의 등기하해석법으로 해석하기 어려운 다수의 트림영역이 존재하는 NURBS 평면을 해석하여 본 방법의 유용성을 검토한다.

Increasing demands on precision machining of free-form surface have necessitated that the tool to move not only position error as small as possible, but also with smoothly varying feedrates. This paper presents new algorithm for high precision 3D(3-dimensional) NURBS(Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline) interpolation in the reference-pulse technique. Based o the minimum path error strategy, interpolation algorithm was designed to follow the NURBS curve. Using this algorithm a real-time 3D NURBS interpolator was developed in software. The algorithm implemented in a PC showed promising results in interpolation error and speed performance. It is expected that this can be applied to the CNC systems for the high precision machining of complex shapes.

NURBS 곡면식으로 정의된 물체 표면상에서 표면 정렬 격자를 생성할 수 있는 방법을 소개하였다. 공학 응용분야에서의 물체 표면 정의는 여러 개의 패치들로 표현되는 것이 일반적이고, 여기서 소개하는 표면격자 생성기법은 이러한 여러 패치들에 걸쳐서 분포되는 정렬격자를 쉽게 생성할 수 있도록 한다 이 기법은 매개변수 형태의 타원형 격자생성 방정식의 해를 구하되, 여러 NURBS 패치에 걸쳐서 투영/분포된 초기 격자계를 타원형 방정식 반복계산 과정의 매개변수형 표면 정의식으로 임시 활용한다. 매개변수형 타원형 방정식의 해가 얻어지고 나면, 그 결과 격자계를 다시 NURBS 패치에 투영을 시키고 타원형 방정식의 해를 구하는 과정이 반복된다. 이러한 반복과정이 전체적으로 수렴이 이루어질 때까지 반복된다. 이 방법에 의해서 얻어지는 표면 정렬 격자계들은 타원형 격자생성기법의 특징인 완만성을 가지면서 정의된 물체표면에서 벗어나지 않는 격자점들이 된다. 소개된 방법은 간단하면서도 하나의 NURBS 곡면만이 아니라 여러 개의 NURBS 곡면에 걸쳐있는 정렬격자계를 효율적으로 생성할 수 있도록 해주며, 그 기본적인 접근법은 NURBS 곡면식 만이 아니라 다른 형태의 매개변수형 형상 정의식에도 적용이 가능하다.

An universal NURBS interpolation for an open architectured CNC controller is proposed in order to unify internal data structure and algorithm of different interpolations such as linear, circular and spline, and to intelligently interface CAD database of the various workpiece contour. Furthermore, NURBS interpolation may result in better surface roughness and high speed machining due to the continuous generation of cutter movement. The mathematical manipulation of NURBS is presented and the practical implementation on the CNC controller of a lathe is discussed for real machining. The comparison between a computer design and workpieces machined on a lathe shows the feasibility of the NURBS interpolation format as an universal interpolation scheme.

Increasing demands on precision machining with computerized numerical control (CNC) machines have necessitated that the tool to move not only position error as small as possible, but also with smoothly varying feedrates in space. This paper presents a new high precision interpolation algorithm for 3-dimensional (3D) Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline (NURBS) curve in the reference-pulse CNC technique. Based on the minimum path error strategy, real-time NURBS interpolator was developed in software and this was implemented with a PC-NC milling machine. The several experimental results have shown that the proposed NURBS interpolator is useful for the high precision machining of complex shapes. It is expected that this algorithm can be applied to the CNC machines for the machining of 3D free-form surfaces.
