One guide curve and several section curves, normal mode:

In the NORMAL method, the sweeping coordinate system is defined as follow:

Z is the opposite of T (Z = -T).

 

 

X is orthogonal to T and V (X = T ^ V).

 

 

Y is orthogonal to X and Z (Y = Z ^ X).

This is the most used method because if the section curves are planar curves located in the XY plane of the sweeping coordinate systems (corresponding to the hooking points), the mixed section curve will stay on the normal plane of the guide curve all along the sweeping.
