Geomorphs: Disc

Definition of surface, in parametric equations:

x(u,v) = v cos(u)
y(u,v) = v sin(u)
z(u,v) = 0

where:

u ranges from 0 to 2π, scanning a full circle on the XY-plane
v ranges from 0 to 2, scanning the disc from the origin at its center to its rim at radius 2.

Ancestor: None: this is one of the original surfaces we hand-coded to get the geomorph "evolution" started.

Note: If you do not see Greek characters on this page, it is probably because the font you are currently using with your browser does not include the Greek code-page. In this page, character π is pi.
