SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis contains research articles on the development and analysis of numerical methods including their convergence, stability, and error ...

Computational methods are presented for spline smoothing that make it practical to compute smoothing splines of degrees other than just the standard cubic case. Specifically, an order n algorithm is ...

The SPLINE method fits a cubic spline curve to the input values. A cubic spline is a segmented function consisting of third-degree (cubic) polynomial functions joined together so that the whole curve ...

What makes rotary ball splines ideal for dual motion How preload influences spline performance Why groove shape and ball contact matter The pros and cons of crossed-roller vs. angular-contact bearings ...

The ubiquitous ball spline. Basically, it is a type of mechanical element used in a variety of industrial applications where precise movement and alignment is required, like machine tools, robot arms ...
