The curve d(u) in the ruled surface parameterization x(u,v)=b(u)+vd(u).

A smooth curve which corresponds to the limiting case of a histogram computed for a frequency distribution of a continuous distribution as the number of data points becomes ...

The Garfield curve is the name sometimes given to the curve with polar equation r=thetacostheta when plotted from theta=-2pi to 2pi (Sisson and Szarvas 2016) because of its ...

The gear curve is a curve resembling a gear with n teeth given by the parametric equations x = rcost (1) y = rsint, (2) where r=a+1/btanh[bsin(nt)], (3) where tanhx is the ...

There are two curves commonly known as the Lamé curve: the ellipse evolute and the superellipse.

The n-roll mill curve is given by the equation x^n-(n; 2)x^(n-2)y^2+(n; 4)x^(n-4)y^4-...=a^n, where (n; k) is a binomial coefficient.

The Scarabaeus curve is a sextic curve given by the equation (x^2+y^2)(x^2+y^2+ax)^2-b^2(x^2-y^2)^2=0 and by the polar equation r=bcos(2theta)-acostheta where a,b!=0.

A Steinmetz curve is a curve of intersection of two perpendicularly placed cylinders of radii a and b comprising a Steinmetz solid. If the vertical cylinder has radius a and ...

French curves are plastic (or wooden) templates having an edge composed of several different curves. French curves are used in drafting (or were before computer-aided design) ...
