Outrageously Funny Word Dictionary :: Helicoidal

👉 "Helicoidally" is a physics term that refers to an object that has two curved surfaces that are closely packed together, resembling the shape of a helix. This type of object is often used in mechanics and engineering to model objects with complex shapes or structures that are difficult to visualize directly. In the context of physics, "helicoidally" describes a specific class of objects called "dissipative elements," which are commonly found in materials such as ceramics, polymers,

helicoidally

👉 In mathematics, a helicoid is a surface that can be thought of as a doughnut-shaped shape. It is also known as a helix because it has two principal directions, one in the radial direction and another in the z-axis. A helicoid has a constant radius (the distance from the center to any point on its surface) but varies along its length (its thickness). The thickness of the helicoid can be measured by measuring how much the radius changes as it moves
