【Abstract】 Refs.3 through 6 improved on FFD method as proposed by Sederberg and Parry in 1986 and extended by Coquillart in 1990 . After commenting briefly on Refs.3 through 6 at the beginning of this article, we are of the opinion that Refs.3 through 6 are not quite satisfactory in that deformation effect(including accurate control of deformation region, quantitative control of amount of deformation, and the continuity and smoothing of the junction between deformed and undeformed portions) is not ideal; also Refs.3 through 6 are limited to NURBS (non uniform rational B-spline) curves and are inapplicable to planar parametric curves; finally Refs.3 through 6 are inapplicable to periodic shape modification or deformation. We present now a new technique of shape modification or deformation for parametric curves. First we introduce a periodic EF (extension factor) function which includes four parameters; then we construct a geometric transformation matrix based on EF operator matrix. When the user operates the geometric transformation matrix on the curve to be deformed, it will be periodically deformed in the way expected by the user. The advantage of this method is that adjusting control parameters is rather easy and precise even for a user without advanced mathematical knowledge. Especially each control parameter presents evident geometric meaning; so the four parameters allow the user to make respectively the following four adjustments concerning: (1) the region of deformation, (2) the amount of deformation, (3) the period of deformation, (4) the continuity and smoothing of junction between deformed and undeformed portions. We emphasize that, different from Refs. 3 through 6, we do not need differentiation, integration and conversion of tangent vector, thus simplifying greatly the computation needed. We expect that our method can be used in geometric modeling, computer animation and CAD.更多还原
