Description
Method ConstructClothoidByAngle Constructs a pieccewise linear approximation to a clothoid spiral. Curvature is the reciprocal of the radius, so specify a curvature of 0 for an infinite radius. deflectionAngle is positive and is the change in direction (in radians) from the starting curve ta
Method ConstructClothoidByLength Constructs a pieccewise linear approximation to a clothoid spiral. Curvature is the reciprocal of the radius, so specify a curvature of 0 for an infinite radius. curveLength is the design length of the curve.
Method ConstructSplitClothoidByAngle Same as ConstructClothoidByAngle but reports curve parameters for point on curve closest to split query point.
Method ConstructSplitClothoidByLength Same as ConstructClothoidByLength but reports curve parameters for point on curve closest to split query point.
