Conch

Conch is a common name of a number of different medium-to-large-sized sea snails.

See Conical spiral and Conch

Conchospiral

In mathematics, a conchospiral a specific type of space spiral on the surface of a cone (a conical spiral), whose floor projection is a logarithmic spiral. Conical spiral and conchospiral are spirals.

See Conical spiral and Conchospiral

Cone

A cone is a three-dimensional geometric shape that tapers smoothly from a flat base (frequently, though not necessarily, circular) to a point called the apex or vertex.

See Conical spiral and Cone

Curve

In mathematics, a curve (also called a curved line in older texts) is an object similar to a line, but that does not have to be straight.

See Conical spiral and Curve

Development (differential geometry)

In classical differential geometry, development is the rolling one smooth surface over another in Euclidean space.

Elliptic integral

In integral calculus, an elliptic integral is one of a number of related functions defined as the value of certain integrals, which were first studied by Giulio Fagnano and Leonhard Euler.

Fermat's spiral

A Fermat's spiral or parabolic spiral is a plane curve with the property that the area between any two consecutive full turns around the spiral is invariant. Conical spiral and Fermat's spiral are spirals.

See Conical spiral and Fermat's spiral

Helicoid

The helicoid, also known as helical surface, is a smooth surface embedded in three-dimensional space.

See Conical spiral and Helicoid

Hyperbola

In mathematics, a hyperbola is a type of smooth curve lying in a plane, defined by its geometric properties or by equations for which it is the solution set.

See Conical spiral and Hyperbola

Hyperbolic spiral

A hyperbolic spiral is a type of spiral with a pitch angle that increases with distance from its center, unlike the constant angles of logarithmic spirals or decreasing angles of Archimedean spirals. Conical spiral and hyperbolic spiral are spirals.

See Conical spiral and Hyperbolic spiral

Length

Length is a measure of distance.

See Conical spiral and Length

Lists of integrals

Integration is the basic operation in integral calculus.

See Conical spiral and Lists of integrals

Logarithmic spiral

A logarithmic spiral, equiangular spiral, or growth spiral is a self-similar spiral curve that often appears in nature. Conical spiral and logarithmic spiral are spirals.

See Conical spiral and Logarithmic spiral

Mathematics

Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes abstract objects, methods, theories and theorems that are developed and proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself.

See Conical spiral and Mathematics

Orthographic projection

Orthographic projection (also orthogonal projection and analemma) is a means of representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions.

See Conical spiral and Orthographic projection

Pappus of Alexandria

Pappus of Alexandria (Πάππος ὁ Ἀλεξανδρεύς; AD) was a Greek mathematician of late antiquity known for his Synagoge (Συναγωγή) or Collection, and for Pappus's hexagon theorem in projective geometry.

See Conical spiral and Pappus of Alexandria

Self-similarity

In mathematics, a self-similar object is exactly or approximately similar to a part of itself (i.e., the whole has the same shape as one or more of the parts).

See Conical spiral and Self-similarity

Spiral

In mathematics, a spiral is a curve which emanates from a point, moving farther away as it revolves around the point. Conical spiral and spiral are spirals.

See Conical spiral and Spiral

Wenzel Jamnitzer

Wenzel Jamnitzer (sometimes Jamitzer, or Wenzel Gemniczer) (1507/1508 – 19 December 1585) was a Northern Mannerist goldsmith, artist, and printmaker in etching, who worked in Nuremberg.
