  2. Paraboloidal coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraboloidal_coordinates

    Similarly, the separated equations for the Laplace equation can be obtained by setting = in the above. Each of the separated equations can be cast in the form of the Baer equation . Direct solution of the equations is difficult, however, in part because the separation constants α 2 {\displaystyle \alpha _{2}} and α 3 {\displaystyle \alpha _{3 ...

  3. Paraboloid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraboloid

    On the axis of a circular paraboloid, there is a point called the focus (or focal point), such that, if the paraboloid is a mirror, light (or other waves) from a point source at the focus is reflected into a parallel beam, parallel to the axis of the paraboloid. This also works the other way around: a parallel beam of light that is parallel to ...

    The red paraboloid corresponds to τ=2, the blue paraboloid corresponds to σ=1, and the yellow half-plane corresponds to φ=-60°. The three surfaces intersect at the point P (shown as a black sphere) with Cartesian coordinates roughly (1.0, -1.732, 1.5).

  5. Lumped parameter model for the cardiovascular system

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumped_parameter_model_for...

    The lumped parameter model consists in a system of ordinary differential equations that adhere to the principles of conservation of mass and momentum balance. The model is obtained exploiting the electrical analogy where the current represents the blood flow, the voltage represents the pressure difference, the electric resistance plays the role of the vascular resistance (determined by the ...

  6. Roman surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_surface

    Join the paraboloids y = xz and x = yz. The result is shown in Figure 1. Figure 1. The paraboloid y = x z is shown in blue and orange. The paraboloid x = y z is shown in cyan and purple. In the image the paraboloids are seen to intersect along the z = 0 axis. If the paraboloids are extended, they should also be seen to intersect along the lines ...

  7. Ruled surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruled_surface

    The hyperbolic paraboloid and the hyperboloid of one sheet are doubly ruled surfaces. The plane is the only surface which contains at least three distinct lines through each of its points ( Fuchs & Tabachnikov 2007 ).

  8. Cardioid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardioid

    Although named for its heart-like form, it is shaped more like the outline of the cross-section of a round apple without the stalk. [5] A cardioid microphone exhibits an acoustic pickup pattern that, when graphed in two dimensions, resembles a cardioid (any 2d plane containing the 3d straight line of the microphone body). In three dimensions ...
