A rational B-spline curve with knots is a B-spline curve described in terms of control points and basic functions. It describes weights in addition to the control points defined at the supertype IfcBSplineCurve.
All weights shall be positive and the curve is given by:
where
| k+1 | number of control points |
| Pi | control points |
| wi | weights |
| d | degree |

| IfcRepresentationItem | |||||
| LayerAssignment | IfcPresentationLayerAssignment @AssignedItems | S[0:1] | Assignment of the representation item to a single or multiple layer(s). The LayerAssignments can override a LayerAssignments of the IfcRepresentation it is used within the list of Items.
IFC2x3 CHANGE The inverse attribute LayerAssignments has been added. IFC4 CHANGE The inverse attribute LayerAssignment has been restricted to max 1. Upward compatibility for file based exchange is guaranteed. | X | |
| StyledByItem | IfcStyledItem @Item | S[0:1] | Reference to the IfcStyledItem that provides presentation information to the representation, e.g. a curve style, including colour and thickness to a geometric curve.
IFC2x3 CHANGE The inverse attribute StyledByItem has been added. | X | |
