Fairing of Discrete Planar Curves to Integrable Discrete Analogue of Euler's Elasticae

We construct a method to fair a given discrete planar curve by using the integrable discrete analogue of Euler’s elastica, which is a discrete version of the approximation algorithm presented by D. Brander, et al. We first give a brief review of the integrable discrete analogue of Euler’s elastica proposed by A. I. Bobenko and Yu. B. Suris, then we present a detailed account of the fairing algorithm, and we apply this method to an architectural problem of characterizing the keylines of Japanese handmade pantiles.
