A cycloid is the curve defined by the path of a point on the edge of circular wheel as the wheel rolls along a straight line. It is an example of a roulette, a curve generated by a curve rolling on ...

The cycloid was first studied by Cusa when he was attempting to find the area of a circle by integration. ... Mersenne gave the first proper definition of the cycloid and stated the obvious properties such as the length of the base equals the circumference of the rolling circle. Mersenne attempted to find the area under...

The trochoids were studied by Torricelli and F. van Schooten, and more completely by John Wallis, who showed that they possessed properties similar to those of the common cycloid. The cartesian equation in terms similar to those used above is x = a6+b sin 0;

Dr. Gerard P. Michon gives a few 'Final Answers' to selected questions about calculus and its applications. Differential operators, etc. ... As a wheel of unit radius rolls (on the x-axis), the trajectory of a point on its circumference is a cycloid, whose parametric equation is not difficult to establish:

A circle rolling on a straight line gives a trochoid, with the cycloid as a special case when the pole P lies on the circle (Figure 1). If the moving circle M has radius a and the distance from the pole P to the center of M is k, the trochoid has the parametric equation ... The cycloid, therefore, has parametric equation...
