Figure 1: Zindler curve. Any of the chords of equal length cuts the curve and the enclosed area into halves. Figure 2: Examples of Zindler curves with a = 8 (blue), a = 16 (green) and a = 24 (red). A Zindler curve is a simple closed plane curve with the defining property that: (L) All chords which cut the curve length into halves have the same ...
A structural piece of stone, wood or metal jutting from a wall to carry a superincumbent weight. A corbie gable from Zaltbommel Corbiesteps A series of steps along the slopes of a gable. [17] Also called crow-steps. A gable featuring corbiesteps is known as a corbie gable, crow-step gable, or stepped gable. [18] Corinthian order
Karahafu: A type of gable found in some traditional Japanese buildings. Hidden roof: A type of Japanese roof construction. Hip, hipped: A hipped roof is sloped in two pairs of directions (e.g. N–S and E–W) compared to the one pair of direction (e.g. N–S or E–W) for a gable roof.

A Jordan curve or a simple closed curve in the plane R 2 is the image C of an injective continuous map of a circle into the plane, φ: S 1 → R 2. A Jordan arc in the plane is the image of an injective continuous map of a closed and bounded interval [a, b] into the plane. It is a plane curve that is not necessarily smooth nor algebraic.
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 ]

A plane curve is the image of any continuous function from an interval to the Euclidean plane.Intuitively, it is a set of points that could be traced out by a moving point. More specifically, smooth curves generally at least require that the function from the interval to the plane be continuously differentiable, and in some contexts are defined to require higher derivative
