• Developable surface — In mathematics, a developable surface is a surface with zero Gaussian curvature. That is, it is a surface that can be flattened onto a plane without distortion (i.e. stretching or compressing ). Conversely, it is a surface which can be made by… …   Wikipedia

• Tangential developable — In the mathematical study of the differential geometry of surfaces, a tangential developable is a particular kind of developable surface obtained from a curve in Euclidean space as the surface swept out by the tangent lines to the curve. Such a… …   Wikipedia

• Tangent developable — The tangent developable of a space curve gamma(t) is a ruled surface of the form gamma(t)+s gamma^prime(t). Intuitively it is the union of the tangent lines to the curve. A result of Euler states that most developable surfaces can be obtained as… …   Wikipedia

• Ruled surface — A hyperboloid of one sheet is a doubly ruled surface: it can be generated by either of two families of straight lines. In geometry, a surface S is ruled if through every point of S there is a straight line that lies on S. The most familiar… …   Wikipedia

• Differential geometry of surfaces — Carl Friedrich Gauss in 1828 In mathematics, the differential geometry of surfaces deals with smooth surfaces with various additional structures, most often, a Riemannian metric. Surfaces have been extensively studied from various perspectives:… …   Wikipedia
