[back] | 3.34. Snail Surface |
[next] |
The snail surface [ 8 ] is represented by the following equations.
x = u cos(v) sin(u) |
3-117 |
|
y = u cos(u) cos(v) |
3-118 |
|
z = -u sin(v) |
3-119 |
To represent the area, the two parameters u and v can assume the following values (domain of definition), for example.
u is an element from the set of numbers [0, 2 pi] |
||
v is an element from the number set [-pi, pi] |
The domain of definition can be changed in the plugin.
