The hanging chain problem in the sphere and in the hyperbolic plane

R López - Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2024 - Springer
In this paper, the notion of the catenary curve in the sphere and in the hyperbolic plane is
introduced. In both spaces, a catenary is defined as the shape of a hanging chain when its …

Numerical simulation research of wide-angle beam steering based on catenary shaped ultrathin metalens

W Zhang, F Liang, Y Su, K Liu, M Tang, L Li, Z Xie… - Optics …, 2020 - Elsevier
In this paper, a bilayer ultrathin (≈ 0. 153 λ) metalens is presented by exploring the
advantage of the metasurface with catenary shape and symmetry transformation. The …

Numerical simulation research of catenary tip-insulator-metal structure for nano-lithography

WP Zhang, F Liang, XY Long, ZQ Liu, YR Su, K Liu… - Applied Optics, 2019 - opg.optica.org
Catenary optics has attracted much interest due to its unique properties in wave-front
manipulation, field enhancement, and dispersion engineering. In this paper, the applications …

Hypersurfaces of revolution with proportional principal curvatures

V Coll, M Harrison - Advances in Geometry, 2013 - degruyter.com
We classify hypersurfaces of revolution for which the principal curvatures are proportional.
These hypersurfaces form a one-parameter family indexed by the reals. The subsequent …

A characteristic averaging property of the catenary

V Coll, J Dodd - The American Mathematical Monthly, 2016 - Taylor & Francis
It is well-known that the catenary is characterized by an extremal centroidal condition: It is
the shape of the curve whose centroid is the lowest among all curves having a prescribed …

Some characterizations of catenary rotation surfaces

DS Kim, YH Kim, DW Yoon - Kyungpook Mathematical Journal, 2017 - koreascience.kr
We study the positive $ C^ 1$ function z= f (x, y) defined on the plane ${\mathbb {R}}^ 2$.
For a rectangular domain $[a, b]{\times}[c, d]{\subset}{\mathbb {R}}^ 2$, we consider the …

Hanging around in non-uniform fields

F Kuczmarski, J Kuczmarski - The American Mathematical Monthly, 2015 - Taylor & Francis
We define a family of curves, the n-catenaries, parameterized by the nonzero reals. They
include the classical catenaries (n= 1), parabolas (n= 1/2), cycloids (n=− 1/2), and …

[PDF][PDF] Centroids and some characterizations of catenaries

DS Kim, HT Moon, DW Yoon - Communications of the Korean …, 2017 - researchgate.net
For every interval [a, b], we denote by (xA, yA) and (xL, yL) the geometric centroid of the area
under a catenary y= k cosh ((xc)/k) defined on this interval and the centroid of the curve itself …
