  2. Limaçon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limaçon

    Construction of the limaçon r = 2 + cos(π – θ) with polar coordinates' origin at (x, y) = (⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠, 0). In geometry, a limaçon or limacon / ˈ l ɪ m ə s ɒ n /, also known as a limaçon of Pascal or Pascal's Snail, is defined as a roulette curve formed by the path of a point fixed to a circle when that circle rolls around the outside of a circle of equal radius.

  3. Limaçon trisectrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limaçon_trisectrix

    The inner loop is defined when + ⁡ on the polar angle interval / /, and is symmetric about the polar axis. The point furthest from the pole on the inner loop has the coordinates ( a , 0 ) {\displaystyle (a,0)} , and on the polar axis, is one-third of the distance from the pole compared to the furthest point of the outer loop.

  4. Epitrochoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epitrochoid

    The epitrochoid with R = 3, r = 1 and d = 1/2. In geometry, an epitrochoid (/ ɛ p ɪ ˈ t r ɒ k ɔɪ d / or / ɛ p ɪ ˈ t r oʊ k ɔɪ d /) is a roulette traced by a point attached to a circle of radius r rolling around the outside of a fixed circle of radius R, where the point is at a distance d from the center of the exterior circle.

  5. Trisectrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trisectrix

    In geometry, a trisectrix is a curve which can be used to trisect an arbitrary angle with ruler and compass and this curve as an additional tool. Such a method falls outside those allowed by compass and straightedge constructions, so they do not contradict the well known theorem which states that an arbitrary angle cannot be trisected with that type of construction.

    Description: The figure-eight knot of mathematical knot theory depicted in symmetric form. The curves were generated from the polar coordinates equation r=b+sin(aθ), which is a slight generalization of the Limaçon and Rose/rhodonea curves, using parameters a=(2/3) and b=2.

  7. Bowden cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowden_cable

    Many light aircraft use a push/pull Bowden cable for the throttle control, and here it is normal for the inner element to be a solid wire, rather than a multi-strand cable. Usually, provision is made for adjusting the cable tension using an inline hollow bolt (often called a "barrel adjuster"), which lengthens or shortens the cable housing ...

  8. Langton's loops - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langton's_loops

    The '70' command advances the end of the wire by one cell, while the '40-40' sequence causes the left turn. State 3 is used as a temporary marker for several stages. While the roles of states 0,1,2,3,4 and 7 are similar to Codd's CA, the remaining states 5 and 6 are used instead to mediate the loop replication process.

  9. Tape-automated bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tape-automated_bonding

    Drawing of a tape-automated bonding carrier and definitions of various parts of the TAB assembly. Tape-automated bonding (TAB) is a process that places bare semiconductor chips (dies) like integrated circuits onto a flexible circuit board (FPC) by attaching them to fine conductors in a polyamide or polyimide (like trade names Kapton or UPILEX) film carrier.
