Descrição

We show how to generate a class of Euclidean splines, called L-splines, as solutions of a high-order variational problem. We also show connections between L-splines and optimal control theory, leading to the conclusion that L-splines are manifestations of an optimal behavior ISR, project ERBFMRXCT970137
