Engineering notation is a version of scientific notation in which the exponent p in expressions of the form a×10^p is chosen to always be divisible by 3. Numbers of forms ...

An enneahedron, also called a nonahedron, is a nine-faced polyhedron. The term "enneahedron" is generally preferred over "nonahedron" since while the former combines the ...

A parameterization of a minimal surface in terms of two functions f(z) and g(z) as [x(r,phi); y(r,phi); z(r,phi)]=Rint[f(1-g^2); if(1+g^2); 2fg]dz, where z=re^(iphi) and R[z] ...

The Enneper surfaces are a three-parameter family of surfaces with constant negative curvature (and nonconstant mean curvature). In general, they are described by elliptic ...

The envelope of a one-parameter family of curves given implicitly by U(x,y,c)=0, (1) or in parametric form by (f(t,c),g(t,c)), is a curve that touches every member of the ...

The pedal curve of an epicycloid x = (a+b)cost-b[((a+b)t)/b] (1) y = (a+b)sint-bsin[((a+b)t)/b] (2) with pedal point at the origin is x_p = 1/2(a+2b){cost-cos[((a+b)t)/b]} ...

The roulette traced by a point P attached to a circle of radius b rolling around the outside of a fixed circle of radius a. These curves were studied by Dürer (1525), ...

An epsilon-delta definition is a mathematical definition in which a statement on a real function of one variable f having, for example, the form "for all neighborhoods U of ...

A map projection in which areas on a sphere, and the areas of any features contained on it, are mapped to the plane in such a way that two are related by a constant scaling ...

Two quantities are said to be equal if they are, in some well-defined sense, equivalent. Equality of quantities a and b is written a=b. Equal is implemented in the Wolfram ...
