Developing more convenient techniques for designing and modifying Bézier curve is an im- portant problem, and is also an important research issue in CAD/CAM and NC technology fields. This work investigates the optimal shape modification of Bézier curves by geometric constraints. This paper presents a new method by constrained optimi- zation based on changing the control points of the curves. By this method, the authors modify control points of the original Bézier curves to satisfy the given constraints and modify the shape of the curves optimally. Practical examples are also given.展开更多

The inverse problem of the calculus of variations or Lagrangian inverse problem for such systems is analyzed by making use of a reduction of the systems into new ones with time reparametrization symmetry and a genotopic transformation related with a conformal transformation.

The authors design admissible linear state feedbacks and the switching rule which has a minimal dwell time （MDT） to stabilized the system. First, for each subsystem with constrained inputs, a stabilizing linear state feedback and an invariant set of the closed-loop system are simultaneously constructed, such that the input constraints are satisfied if and only if the closed-loop system＇s states lie inside this set. Then, by constructing a quadratic Lyapunov function for each closed-loop subsystem, an MDT is deduced and an MDT-based switching strategy is presented to ensure the stability of the switched system.展开更多
