8 Three Techniques to Tackle Torsion Tinkering Lattice walking Constant torsion c 2009, T. TUE.NL 8/20 Regular Constant-Torsion Polygons
9 3D Turtle Geometry State : Normal Position in space Heading Attitude = ( heading vector, normal vector ) Commands : Move(d): move distance d in direction of heading Turn(ϕ): turn clockwise by angle ϕ about normal Roll(ψ) : roll clockwise by angle ψ about heading Mathematica Demonstrations Project: 3D Flying Pipe-laying Turtle c 2009, T.

11 Generalization to 3D In 3D: roll angles provide additional freedom All roll angles equal Roll(ψ) yields a helix, which never closes Added requirement: all torsion angles are equal in absolute value c 2009, T. TUE.NL 11/20 Regular Constant-Torsion Polygons
12 Constant Torsion Polygons Define Segment(d, ψ, ϕ) = Move(d) ; Roll(ψ) ; T urn(ϕ) Regular path: path produced by sequence of Segment(d i, ψ i, ϕ i ) with all d i = d > 0 and all ϕ i = ϕ for 0 < ϕ < 180 Constant-torsion (CT) path: all d i > 0, 0 < ϕ i < 180, and ψ i = ψ 3D Polygon: path produced by properly closed turtle program Turtle program is properly closed when turtle returns to initial state (both initial position and initial attitude) Regular CT polygon is determined by d, ψ, ϕ and sequence of roll signs (N.B. d is only a scale factor; w.l.o.g. assume d = 1) c 2009, T. TUE.NL 12/20 Regular Constant-Torsion Polygons
13 Existence and Construction Existence of sign sequence and values for angles ψ, ϕ not evident Method: Choose signs and one of ψ, ϕ, then determine other angle Movie: Given sign sequence (++--) 4, ψ = 90, determine ϕ for closure 0.5 y z x φ c 2009, T. TUE.NL 13/20 Regular Constant-Torsion Polygons

16 Some Theorems about Regular CT Polygons Distance between vertices k edges apart is constant, for k = 1, 2, 3 Total torsion = n i=1 ψ i 0 (mod ψ) Corollary: Mitering matches ψ is symmetry of cross section For square cross section, ψ = 90 is practical choice c 2009, T.
