PySplines

Python / Sympy implementation of Uniform rational B-splines.

The supposed usage of the PySplines is CAD-style parameter-based shape generation for meshes and shape optimization.

The package focuses on:

  • Easy generation of B-splines with given control points and degree,
  • Access to the surface properties in analytical and numerical forms (normals, curvature, displacement fields)
  • Smoothness of the curve and uniformity of the points distribution along the curve
  • Fast access to the surface properties, especially when they are called multiple times

Installation
