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 ...

A catastrophe which can occur for three control factors and one behavior axis. The swallowtail catastrophe is the universal unfolding of singularity f(x)=x^5 with codimension ...

An ordered finite configuration with certain pairs of points, called cables, which are constrained not to get further apart and certain other pairs of points, called struts, ...

A surface given by the parametric equations x = A(u-a)^m(v-a)^n (1) y = B(u-b)^m(v-b)^n (2) z = C(u-c)^m(v-c)^n. (3)

A totative is a positive integer less than or equal to a number n which is also relatively prime to n, where 1 is counted as being relatively prime to all numbers. The number ...
