    Shukhov built his first example as a water tower (hyperbolic shell) for the 1896 All-Russian Exposition. Subsequently, more have been designed by other architects, including Le Corbusier, Antoni Gaudí, Eduardo Torroja, Oscar Niemeyer and Ieoh Ming Pei. The shapes are doubly ruled surfaces, which can be classed as:

  4. Unit hyperbola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_hyperbola

    The unit hyperbola is blue, its conjugate is green, and the asymptotes are red. In geometry, the unit hyperbola is the set of points (x,y) in the Cartesian plane that satisfy the implicit equation = In the study of indefinite orthogonal groups, the unit hyperbola forms the basis for an alternative radial length

  5. Hyperbolic functions - Wikipedia

    A ray through the unit hyperbola x 2 − y 2 = 1 at the point (cosh a, sinh a), where a is twice the area between the ray, the hyperbola, and the x-axis. For points on the hyperbola below the x-axis, the area is considered negative (see animated version with comparison with the trigonometric (circular) functions).

  6. Hyperboloid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperboloid

    In geometry, a hyperboloid of revolution, sometimes called a circular hyperboloid, is the surface generated by rotating a hyperbola around one of its principal axes.A hyperboloid is the surface obtained from a hyperboloid of revolution by deforming it by means of directional scalings, or more generally, of an affine transformation.

    All around the scene with the pelican, there are numerous examples (including the basket held by one of the figures). There is a hyperboloid adding structural stability to the cypress tree (by connecting it to the bridge). The "bishop's mitre" spires are capped with hyperboloids. [citation needed]

    [2]: 400 This definition is analogous to the definition of a planar hyperbola. The one-dimensional wave equation: = is an example of a hyperbolic equation. The two-dimensional and three-dimensional wave equations also fall into the category of hyperbolic PDE.
