  • Description: Abstract Roller coaster is one of the attractions to the public. The design of roller coaster plays an important role for the smoothness and safety of each roller coaster rail. This research is about designing a smooth roller coaster rail loop using extended cubic uniform B-spline method as one of the alternative in designing a smooth roller coaster rail. Two-dimensional design of roller coaster rail loop is form by using extended cubic uniform B-spline with degree 3, 4 and 5 and shape parameter, λ= 0.5, and 1. Then, three-dimensional cubic B-spline is formed by using sweep surface which is translation method. The loop is analysed by the distance between curve and control polygon. Moreover, the G-felt with the different radius of the loop has been calculated. The value of G-felt for each method used will be compared to the G-felt value of the original roller coaster. The result from this research showed that by using extended cubic B-spline method degree 4, λ = 0.5 is the best way to design roller coaster rail because it has the best G-force value compared to others designs.
