A construction algorithm for minimal surfaces
نویسندگان
چکیده
2014 Infinite periodic minimal surfaces are constructed from complex functions, which are simply related to the orientation of flat points on the surface. Two tetragonal families of surfaces are generated, which are shown to reduce in special cases to classical minimal surfaces : the cubic diamond surface (D surface) and the Scherk surface. In all cases the construction algorithm for the complex functions yields the expected results, supporting the validity of the procedure. The algorithm can be used to determine new periodic minimal surfaces. J. Physique 48 (1987) 1585-1590 SEPTEMBRE 1987, Classification Physics Abstracts 02.40 61.30 61.50E

Digital cohomology groups of certain minimal surfaces
In this study, we compute simplicial cohomology groups with different coefficients of a connected sum of certain minimal simple surfaces by using the universal coefficient theorem for cohomology groups. The method used in this paper is a different way to compute digital cohomology groups of minimal simple surfaces. We also prove some theorems related to degree properties of a map on digital sph...
متن کاملWeierstrass Representation of Periodic Minimal Surfaces
A general algorithm for the construction of infinite periodic minimal surfaces (IPMS) via their Weierstrass function is outlined, enabling parameterisation of known examples, and forming the bases of a systematic search for all such surfaces. For the 'regular' class of IPMS (including the low genus surfaces) the Weierstrass function has a simple form, permitting a complete listing of all possib...
متن کاملConstruction of Triply Periodic Minimal Surfaces
We discuss the construction of triply period minimal surfaces. This includes concepts for constructing new examples as well as a discussion of numerical computations based on the new concept of discrete minimal surfaces. As a result we present a wealth of old and new examples and suggest directions for further generalizations.

متن کاملAb-initio construction of some crystalline 3D Euclidean networks
We describe a technique for construction of 3D Euclidean (E3) networks with partially-prescribed rings. The algorithm starts with 2D hyperbolic (H2) tilings, whose symmetries are commensurate with the intrinsic 2D symmetries of triply periodic minimal surfaces (or infinite periodic minimal surfaces, IPMS). The 2D hyperbolic pattern is then projected from H2 to E3, forming 3D nets. Examples of c...
