End of Corollary.
Examples 23.1 and 23.2 have clearly documented that the fundamental local representa-
tion ( 23.139 ), ( 23.140 )aswellas( 23.145 )ofthe clothoid contains the circle and the straight line
as special cases. Indeed this has been one target function why we developed ( 23.139 ), ( 23.140 ),
and ( 23.145 ).
Case studies
For the case studies we have collected the initial value data of Table 23.5 for various degrees
of approximation.
This contribution is based on Grafarend ( 2002 ).
