Frenet-Serret formulas (프레네-세레 공식)

이미지
The tangent, normal, and binormal unit vectors, often called  T ,  N , and  B , or collectively the  Frenet–Serret frame  or  TNB frame , together form an  orthonormal basis   spanning  ℝ 3  and are defined as follows: T  is the unit vector  tangent  to the curve, pointing in the direction of motion. N  is the  normal  unit vector, the derivative of  T  with respect to the  arclength parameter  of the curve, divided by its length. B  is the binormal unit vector, the  cross product  of  T  and  N . The Frenet–Serret formulas are: where  d / ds  is the derivative with respect to arclength,  κ  is the  curvature , and  τ  is the  torsion  of the curve. The two  scalars   κ  and  τ  effectively define the curvature and torsion of a space curve. The associated collection,  T ,...
