Summary
| Description |
English: Plot of the unduloid constant mean curvature surface, generated by rotating an elliptic catenary around the x-axis.
Español: Gráfico del unduloide. Esta superficie tiene curvature media constante y es generada a partir de rotar una catenaria elíptica alrededor del eje x.
Türkçe: Sabit ortalama egri yuzeyli unduloid grafigi. Eliptik bir zincir egrisinin x ekseni etrafinda dondurulmesiyle elde edilmistir. |
