Title
Approximation by fat arcs and fat biarcs
Abstract
A general discussion of the including approximation of a curve by a fat arc is given followed by an algorithm for constructing an including fat arc for a parametric Bézier curve. An example of applying the algorithm is given. The results for a fat arc are then used to develop an including approximation for a curve segment using a fat biarc. An algorithm for a fat biarc including approximation is provided followed by examples of Bézier curves being included by a fat biarc.
