    For <, spiral-ring pattern; =, regular spiral; >, loose spiral. R is the distance of spiral starting point (0, R) to the center. The calculated x and y have to be rotated backward by for plotting. [13] [predatory publisher]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiral

    Two well-known spiral space curves are conical spirals and spherical spirals, defined below. Another instance of space spirals is the toroidal spiral. [8] A spiral wound around a helix, [9] also known as double-twisted helix, [10] represents objects such as coiled coil filaments.

    Helix. Hemihelix, a quasi-helical shape characterized by multiple tendril perversions; Tendril perversion (a transition between back-to-back helices) Seiffert's spiral; Slinky spiral; Space cardioid; Twisted cubic; Viviani's curve

    The slope of a circular helix is commonly defined as the ratio of the circumference of the circular cylinder that it spirals around, and its pitch (the height of one complete helix turn). A conic helix , also known as a conic spiral , may be defined as a spiral on a conic surface, with the distance to the apex an exponential function of the ...

  8. Pitch angle of a spiral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitch_angle_of_a_spiral

    In the geometry of spirals, the pitch angle [1] or pitch [2] of a spiral is the angle made by the spiral with a circle through one of its points, centered at the center of the spiral. Equivalently, it is the complementary angle to the angle made by the vector from the origin to a point on the spiral, with the tangent vector of the spiral at the ...

    1914 — Hackh's periodic table: First spiral to take account of Mosley's atomic numbers, and the first to show successively larger pairs of coils. Also interesting as H stands alone in the centre [77] 1925 — Courtines's a model of the periodic table: A helix with the appearance of a submarine or a castle [78]
