Parametric Optimization of S-type Cables

We formulated an S-curve parameterization for re-routing a cable path for a given offset displacement. In our approach we assume the cable path to follow a tangent hyperbolic curve. In our formulation, after taking the geometric constraints into account, two free parameters exist. The objective of o...
