Abstract

Journal of Vibration and Control, Ahead of Print.
In laser cutting, corner machining efficiency is often limited by transition curves whose high-order formulations increase computational complexity and amplify curvature extrema under linear length constraints, thereby restricting achievable feed rates. ...
