Abstract: In the paper, Pythagorean-hodograph cycloidal curves as an extension of PH cubics are introduced. Their properties are examined and a constructive geometric characterization is established. Further, PHC curves are applied in the Hermite interpolation, with closed form solutions been determined. The asymptotic approximation order analysis carried out indicates clearly which interpolatory curve solution should be selected in practice. This makes the curves introduced here a useful practical tool, in particular in algorithms that guide CNC machines.

Abstract: In this paper, a class of rational spatial curves that have a rational binormal is introduced . Such curves (called PB curves) play an important role in the derivation of rational rotation-minimizing osculating frames. The PB curve construction proposed is based upon the dual curve representation and the Euler-Rodrigues frame obtained from quaternion polynomials. The construction significantly simplifies if the curve is a polynomial one. Further, polynomial PB curves of the degree % 7 and rational PB curves of the degree % 6 that possess rational rotation-minimizing osculating frames are derived, and it is shown that no lower degree curves, constructed from quadratic quaternion polynomials, with such a property exist.
