However, as the paraboloid becomes narrower, it tilts, then abruptly tumbles onto its side. |
The paraboloid is dynamic, meaning that it will change if you move one of the base objects. |
Be it a dome, butterfly, shed or hyperbolic paraboloid roof or a classic flat roof, every roof structure has a unique character. |
Here, the repetition and rotation of a basic truss creates the paraboloid form of the roof. |
This container is a paraboloid, but its shape does not need to be made as accurately as a rigid mirror. |
Its elliptical paraboloid shape was selected because it could be easily described mathematically, simplifying both design and construction. |
