Cubic Spline Interpolation Method

• By Amberisch Gawaskar,

We construct a polygon ABDC and the remaining internal lines as
follows.
Constrain Point J to lie in proportion t along line HI
We,
Constrain Point E to lie in proportion t along line AB.
Constrain Point F to lie in proportion t along line BC.
Constrain Point G to lie in proportion t along line CD.
Constrain Point H to lie in proportion t along line EF.
Constrain Point I to lie in proportion t along line FG.
Constrain Point J to lie in proportion t along line HI
We constrain the location of point A to (Xo,Yo), B to (X1,Y1), C to (X2,Y2) and
D to (X3,Y3).
As we move E Along the line AB we observe that J moves along a
circular curve.
We create a locus as t varies from 0-1 and we get our curve.
If we drag the different points in the control polygon we see
that we get different rises of the curve of the spline.
If we drag the different points in the control polygon we see
that we get different rises of the curve of the spline.
If we select the curve itself we cud generate a parametric
equation of the cubic spline.
