2. Cross section (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

   A plane containing a cross-section of the solid may be referred to as a cutting plane. The shape of the cross-section of a solid may depend upon the orientation of the cutting plane to the solid. For instance, while all the cross-sections of a ball are disks, [2] the cross-sections of a cube depend on how the cutting plane is related to the ...

3. Geometric design of roads - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_design_of_roads

   Geometric roadway design can be broken into three main parts: alignment, profile, and cross-section. Combined, they provide a three-dimensional layout for a roadway. The alignment is the route of the road, defined as a series of horizontal tangents and curves.

5. Atlas (topology) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlas_(topology)

   A transition map provides a way of comparing two charts of an atlas. To make this comparison, we consider the composition of one chart with the inverse of the other. This composition is not well-defined unless we restrict both charts to the intersection of their domains of definition. (For example, if we have a chart of Europe and a chart of ...

9. Curve of constant width - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve_of_constant_width

   In geometry, a curve of constant width is a simple closed curve in the plane whose width (the distance between parallel supporting lines) is the same in all directions. The shape bounded by a curve of constant width is a body of constant width or an orbiform , the name given to these shapes by Leonhard Euler . [ 1 ]
