Abstract in different language: In this paper we study situations when non-rational parameterizations of planar or space curves as results of certain geometric operations or constructions are obtained, in general. We focus especially on such cases in which one can identify a rational mapping which is a double cover of a rational curve. Hence, we deal with rational, elliptic or hyperelliptic curves that are birational to plane curves in the Weierstrass form and thus they are square-root parameterizable. We design a simple algorithm for computing an approximate (piecewise) rational parametrization using topological graphs of the Weierstrass curves. Predictable shapes reflecting a number of real roots of a univariate polynomial and a possibility to approximate easily the branches separately play a crucial role in the approximation algorithm. Our goal is not to give a comprehensive list of all such operations but to present at least selected interesting cases originated in geometric modelling and to show a unifying feature of the formulated method. We demonstrate our algorithm on a number of examples.
