数学图形之水滴

      前几天看科幻小说<三体>,讲到有种武器叫水滴,是三体人用于对付地球人的.这一节将介绍几种水滴形的数学公式.

      <三体>书中对水滴的描述如下:

      当全世界第一次看到探测器的影像时，所有人都陶醉于它那绝美的外形。这东西真的是太美了，它的形状虽然简洁，但造型精妙绝伦，曲面上的每一个点都恰到好处，使这滴水银充满着飘逸的动感，仿佛每时每刻都在宇宙之夜中没有尽头地滴落着。它给人一种感觉：即使人类艺术家把一个封闭曲面的所有可能形态平滑地全部试完，也找不出这样一个造型。它在所有的可能之外，即使柏拉图的理想国中也没有这样完美的形状，它是比直线更直的线，是比正圆更圆的圆，是梦之海中跃出的一只镜面海豚，是宇宙间所有爱的结晶...美总是和善联在一起的，所以，如果宇宙中真有一条善恶分界线的话，它一定在善这一面。

我之前写过有关水滴线的文章,数学图形(1.15) 水滴线,那是讲的二维曲线,而这一节给大家带来的是三维水滴形.当然水滴形就是由一个水滴线旋转180度,或半个水滴线旋转360度而生成的.

(1)水滴 

vertices = D1:100 D2:100

u = from 0 to (PI) D1
v = from 0 to (2*PI) D2

a = 10
b = rand2(0.25, 1)

m = a/2*(1 + cos(u))
n = a*a/64*(sin(2*u) + 2*sin(u))*b

x = n*cos(v)
z = n*sin(v)
y = array_max(m)-m

# x^2+y^2=(1-z)z^2 

vertices = 360

v = from -1 to 1 D2

x = v*sqrt(0.5 - v/2)
y = v

x = x*a
y = y*a
