Logotip stre¾nika WIMS

logo

The curve represents the trace of a point on a disk of radius 1 rotating inside a fixed circle of radius 3. And the deformation of the curve represents what happens when the distance of the point towards the center of the moving disk varies from 0 to infinity.

This animated logo is created by the application Tracés animés under Wims.

  • Type of plotting: parametric curve in 2D.
  • Equations:
         x=(1-s)*cos(t+pi*s)+s*cos(2*t)
         y=(1-s)*sin(t+pi*s)-s*sin(2*t)
     
    (where s is the ``sequentiel parameter'' as defined in Tracés animés.)
  • Ranges of variables:
     -1<x<1, -1<y<1, 0<t<2*pi. 

You may load directly these settings into the menu of Tracés animés to plot it yourself.
