A shift-add algorithm for generating B-spline
Journal Title: Computer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science - Year 2013, Vol 20, Issue 4
Abstract
A CORDIC- based shift-add algorithm for generating B-spline curves is presented in this paper. This algorithm can be realized by hardware without multiplier, or coded with assembly language and run in the basic computing system which exists in many application systems. Convergence of the algorithm was proved. Errors were estimated and well controlled in the algorithm. A numerical experiment was carried out to validate algorithm. This algorithm can be used for adding complex curve plotting functions in embedded systems.

From experimental, structural probability distributions to the theoretical causality analysis of molecular changes
A brief overview of causality analysis (CA) methods applied to MD simulations data for model biomolec ular systems is presented. A CausalMD application for postprocessing of MD data was designed and implemented. MD simul...
Stress analysis of linear elastic structures by the fast multipole boundary element method. (Received in the final form January 15, 2010)
In this paper a fast multipole boundary element method (FMBEM) analysis of internal stress in twodimensional linear elastic structures is presented. The expansions of the potentials occurring in the stress integral equat...
Numerical studies of dynamic stability under small random parametric excitations
An efficient numerical procedure is proposed to obtain mean-square stability regions for both single-degree-of-freedom and two-degree-of-freedom linear systems under parametric bounded noise excitation. This procedure re...
Validation of an experimental technique with the physically based global method
Validation of an experimental approach requires that both model and data errors are proved to be within acceptable ranges. In case of destructive testing none of the classic, statistically based methods can be applied fo...
