Bloss spiral generation using Revit api

Hi Experts, 

 Currently i am trying to extract LandXML data and bring the curve elements in the revit  using revit api. I can able to draw the curve elements for Arc, Line successfully as per data in LandXML. For Spiral, different types of spiral  found in LandXML like Clothoid, Bloss etc... I can able to generate Clothoid curve too using Revit api. Need to generate curves for following different Spiral types. 

biquadratic
bloss
cosine
cubic
sinusoid
revBiquadratic
revBloss
revCosine
revSinusoid
sineHalfWave
biquadraticParabola
cubicParabola
japaneseCubic
radioid

I couldn't find valid source in revit api or dynamo stuff. can anyone help me in this regards?

I would suggest that you first research how to represent the desired curves manually via the end user interface.

 

Once you have that part sorted out, you can explore the resulting model using RevitLookup to find out how to create the same programmatically as well:

Please be aware that the Revit API hardly ever supports any functionality that is not also available in the user interface.
