  3. 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.

  4. 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 ...

    The two orange circles are exactly the same size; however, the one on the right appears larger. Ehrenstein illusion: The Ehrenstein illusion is an optical illusion studied by the German psychologist Walter Ehrenstein in which the sides of a square placed inside a pattern of concentric circles take an apparent curved shape. Fata Morgana (mirage)

  6. List of stone circles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_stone_circles

    Each circle in concentric, with and inner and an outer ring separated by an open strip approximately 8 meters wide. [16] Each circle contains smaller clusters of stone, including standing stones surrounded by elongated stones in a radiating orientation, forming a sundial which points toward the sunset on the summer solstice and allows for ...

  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. Pencil (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    It consists of a family of real circles, all tangent to each other at a single common point. The degenerate circle with radius zero at that point also belongs to the pencil. A family of concentric circles centered at a common center (may be considered a special case of a hyperbolic pencil where the other point is the point at infinity).

  9. Hexafoil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexafoil

    The second circle is centered at any point on the first circle. All following circles are centered on the intersection of two other circles. The design is sometimes expanded into a regular overlapping circles grid. Bartfeld (2005) describes the construction: "This design consists of circles having a 1-[inch] radius, with each point of ...
