PRESS ONE OF THE NUMBERS 1, 2, . . . , 9 to see a pattern of wheel curves. Press shift+green flag for Turbo mode. Press v, adjust the sliders for n and s, press v and green flag again: - n is the number of curves (1-20) - s is the scale factor Use n=1 and not Turbo to look at the slower drawing of one curve. If you want to interrupt the drawing of a curve, press red stop button and green flag.
- Four wheels with radii 80,50,30,20, angular velocities 1,-11,13,-47 and phases ph1-ph4, i.e. the radii and velocities are the same in all cases. So if the shapes differ, it's due to the phases. - See inside and explore the code. I've written a few comments in it hoping that you will explore more wheel curves and maybe remix - there are so many beautiful pictures to find =). - See https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/170137290/ for animations of both wheels and curve, but just for some simple cases (unfortunately only with all phases zero).
