  2. Concentric objects - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentric_objects

    The region of the plane between two concentric circles is an annulus, and analogously the region of space between two concentric spheres is a spherical shell. [6] For a given point c in the plane, the set of all circles having c as their center forms a pencil of circles. Each two circles in the pencil are concentric, and have different radii.

  3. Villarceau circles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Villarceau_circles

    Slicing with the z = 0 plane produces two concentric circles, x 2 + y 2 = 2 2 and x 2 + y 2 = 8 2, the outer and inner equator. Slicing with the x = 0 plane produces two side-by-side circles, (y − 5) 2 + z 2 = 3 2 and (y + 5) 2 + z 2 = 3 2. Two example Villarceau circles can be produced by slicing with the plane 3y = 4z. One is centered at ...

  5. Pencil (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pencil_(geometry)

    A pencil of circles (or coaxial system) is the set of all circles in the plane with the same radical axis. [9] To be inclusive, concentric circles are said to have the line at infinity as a radical axis. There are five types of pencils of circles, [10] the two families

  6. Annulus (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annulus_(mathematics)

    In mathematics, an annulus (pl.: annuli or annuluses) is the region between two concentric circles. Informally, it is shaped like a ring or a hardware washer. The word "annulus" is borrowed from the Latin word anulus or annulus meaning 'little ring'. The adjectival form is annular (as in annular eclipse).

  7. Circle packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_packing

    The most efficient way to pack different-sized circles together is not obvious. In geometry, circle packing is the study of the arrangement of circles (of equal or varying sizes) on a given surface such that no overlapping occurs and so that no circle can be enlarged without creating an overlap.

  8. Steiner chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steiner_chain

    As shown below, this ratio-of-radii criterion for concentric given circles can be extended to all types of given circles by the inversive distance δ of the two given circles. For concentric circles, this distance is defined as a logarithm of their ratio of radii = ⁡ Using the solution for concentric circles, the general criterion for a ...
