Is there a way to use fabricational bending to solve things for irregular shapes?

I think some computer programs can do something similar, but I was wondering if you have some weird shape that has vertices that are formed from concave sides like this

To "Unbend" and object like the inverse of how the fabric of space can distort objects, then solve the angles and sides, and then "re-bend" it so that when you bent it, you would form the right angles and side lengths with the correct degree of bending.

 

I suppose it wouldn't be much different than "unwrapping" a cylinder.

well the object you posted is the Deltoid curve.it has a Wiki page:Deltoid curve ,but i'm not sure what you want with it.
