The superformula is a generalization of the superellipse and was proposed by Johan Gielis in 2003. [1] Gielis suggested that the formula can be used to describe many complex shapes and curves that are found in nature.
The characteristic linear system of a family of curves on an algebraic surface Y for a curve C in the family is a linear system formed by the curves in the family that are infinitely near C. [ 4 ] In modern terms, it is a subsystem of the linear system associated to the normal bundle to C ↪ Y {\displaystyle C\hookrightarrow Y} .
The generator is the vertex of the rolling parabola and describes the roulette, shown in red. In this case the roulette is the cissoid of Diocles. [1] Roughly speaking, a roulette is the curve described by a point (called the generator or pole) attached to a given curve as that curve rolls without slipping, along a second given curve that is ...
An important aspect in the study of elliptic curves is devising effective ways of counting points on the curve.There have been several approaches to do so, and the algorithms devised have proved to be useful tools in the study of various fields such as number theory, and more recently in cryptography and Digital Signature Authentication (See elliptic curve cryptography and elliptic curve DSA).
The red curve is a hypotrochoid drawn as the smaller black circle rolls around inside the larger blue circle (parameters are R = 5, r = 3, d = 5).. In geometry, a hypotrochoid is a roulette traced by a point attached to a circle of radius r rolling around the inside of a fixed circle of radius R, where the point is a distance d from the center of the interior circle.
[2] [3] The curve he found of voltage versus the pressure-gap length product (right) is called Paschen's curve. He found an equation that fit these curves, which is now called Paschen's law. He found an equation that fit these curves, which is now called Paschen's law.
A scale-free network is a network whose degree distribution follows a power law, at least asymptotically.That is, the fraction P(k) of nodes in the network having k connections to other nodes goes for large values of k as
Capability curve of an electrical generator describes the limits of the active and reactive power that the generator can provide. The curve represents a boundary of all operating points in the MW/MVAr plane; it is typically drawn with the real power on the horizontal axis, and, for the synchronous generator , resembles a letter D in shape, thus ...
