Instructions

PRESS ONE OF THE NUMBERS 1 - 8 to see a pattern of wheel curves. - k is an integer, usually but not always it gives k-fold symmetry - n is the number of curves (1-16) - s is the scale factor - Turbo or not My suggestion: use n=1 and not Turbo / use n larger and Turbo. If you want to interrupt the drawing of a curve, press red stop button and green flag.

Description

- The patterns have pairwise the same radii and velocities, i.e. in nr 1 & 2 / 3 & 4 / ... only the phases and coloring differ. -The code is for three wheels with radii r1-r3, angular velocities w1-w3 and phases ph1-ph3. In 'Wheel curves 3' w1 was 1, here it can be any integer. Why? Because it's convenient to use only integers in the code for velocities, i.e. instead of 1, -1.5 and 2 we can use 2, -3 and 4 (the shape of the curve depends only on the relative size of the velocities).
