Revisiting variable radius circles in constructive geometric constraint solving
Variable-radius circles are common constructs in planar constraint solving and are usually not handled fully by algebraic constraint solvers. We give a complete treatment of variable-radius circles when such a
circle must be determined simultaneously with placing two groups of geometric entities. The problem arises for instance in solvers using triangle decomposition to reduce the complexity of the constraint
problem.Postprint (published version
