Bezier-Bernstein approximation for airfoil shape

Hello,
I'm interested if it is possible to approximate an airfoil shape with 2 or more Bezier curves of a moderate order (say 10-12). What I want to know is if it is possible that given a certain number of points (say 360 points) of an airfoil to fit through these a 12 order Bezier curve. I've read an introductory chapter in Bezier curves but I didn't found any clear explanations of how you can approximate a given data set with a Bezier curve. The classical approach seems to be to use a Bezier curve of order N-1 where N is the number of your data points. I would appreciate any insight in the subject. Thanks, Do |
