Abstract: An approximation processing method for approximating a point group using a curve or a surface defined by control points includes a step of forming an approximated curve (surface) using control points that retain features of a shape; a first calculation step of calculating a closest point closest to each of the data points on the approximated curve (surface); a second calculation step of calculating an error vector that joins the closest point, obtained in the first calculation step, to the data point; and a third calculation step of calculating a corrected control point by moving each of the control points based on the error vector obtained by the second calculation step. The step of forming an approximated curve (surface) and the first to third calculation steps are repeated to make the approximated curve (surface) respectively approximate the curve (surface) of an object configured by the data points.

Abstract: There is provided a stator in which a plurality of divided stators are annularly combined with each other, and each divided stator includes: a divided lamination iron core having teeth portion and a yoke portion, and constructed by laminating electromagnetic steel sheets divided by the teeth unit; insulating bodies provided at the divided lamination iron core; and concentrated winding wound around the divided lamination iron core through the insulating body. In this case, the divided lamination iron core is held by the insulating bodies and the concentrated winding.
