Best Answer

The french curve is a set of segments of Euler spirals, also known as clothoids. The curvature of a clothoid varies linearly along its length. If you start at the least curved end of one of the segments (curvature closest to zero) there will be a declining radius of curvature as you go until you reach the end of that segment. The french curve set has several segments with different rates of curvature change.

How do you get the formula center of curvature?

This starts with the collocation circle to go through the three points on the curve. First write the equation of a circle. Then write three equations that force the collocation circle to go through the three points on the curve. Last, solve the equations for a, b, and r.


What is the French Curve used for in sewing?

The French curve, or designer's curve, is used for creating garment patterns. Patterns are usually based on standardized sizes intended to fit what's considered to be average sizes.Standardized sizing don't fit everyone, which is why a French Curve is handy. The French Curve can be used to customize garment patterns, allowing sewers to adjust them to fit curvaceous figures or lower a neckline.Examples of uses of a French Curve:Fitting the hips in a skirt or pantsDarts for bustlinesArmholesLower the neckline


What is parametric cubic curve?

A parametric cubic curve is a cubic curve made up of two equations. For example an x(t) part, and a y(t) part. They may also be known as 'Bezier' curves. Parametric equations are generally controlled by a 't' value. A google search of 'parametric cubic' may also give you some more information.
