Developable surface

Japanese: 展開可能曲面 - てんかいかのうきょくめん(英語表記)developable surface
Developable surface
A surface with Gaussian curvature that is identically 0 can be developed onto a plane without any stretching or shrinking. Therefore, such a surface is called a developable surface. Surfaces obtained by moving a straight line parallel to a constant curve in space (cylinder), surfaces obtained by fixing a point on a line in space and moving this line along a constant curve (cone), and surfaces drawn by the tangent to a curve in space (tangent surface) are all developable surfaces, but it is known that a developable surface is any of these.

Japanese:
ガウス曲率が恒等的に0である曲面では,その部分をとると平面上に伸び縮みなく展開することができる。それでこのような曲面を展開可能曲面,または可展面と呼ぶ。空間で直線を定曲線に沿って平行に動かすことによって得られる曲面(柱面),空間で直線上の1点を固定してこの直線を定曲線に沿って動かすことによって得られる曲面(錐面)および空間における曲線の接線の描く曲面(接線曲面)は展開可能曲面であるが,逆に展開可能曲面はこれらのいずれかであることが知られている。
