中文版:帕斯卡蜗牛线在线计算器
原理
帕斯卡蜗牛线(limaçon of Pascal,Étienne Pascal 1650 年前后)r = b + a·cosθ。b = 0 退化为过极点的圆,b = a 是心形线(无内环),b < a 出现自交的内环,b ≥ 2a 变为凸曲线。r = 0 的两个方向 θ₀ = arccos(−b/a) 与 2π − θ₀ 把曲线分为外环与内环。
全周期代数面积 (1/2)∫₀..2π r²dθ = πb² + πa²/2 = 外环 + 内环(两条环面积的可加校验);外环与内环分别对 [−θ₀, θ₀] 与 [θ₀, 2π−θ₀] 积分得到几何面积,GL16 数值与解析恒等式交叉验证。
使用步骤
① 输入 a 与 b(b < a);② 计算外环、内环面积与自交角;③ 作图时用 r = b + a·cosθ 逐点描迹。
计算示例
a = 1、b = 0.5:外环 = 2.220315379633、内环 = 0.135879110559、代数面积 = 2.356194490192(外 + 内 = 代数 ✓)、θ₀ = 2.094395102393。b = a = 1 退化心形线:外环 = 3π/2 = 4.712388980385、内环 = 0。b = 2a 凸曲线:代数面积 πb² + πa²/2 = 4.5π·a²·? a=1,b=2 → π·4 + π/2 = 14.137166941154。
注意事项
「蜗牛线面积」不同文献口径不同:有的给代数面积(含内环一次)、有的给外环、有的给两环之差。本工具三项都输出并标注口径,避免歧义。θ 用弧度。
常见问题
Q:为什么叫 Pascal 蜗牛线?A:以法国数学家 Étienne Pascal(布莱兹·帕斯卡之父)命名,与概率论的帕斯卡无直接关系。
Q:b > a 但 b < 2a 时凹但无内环?A:对——r 恒正但极角不单调,曲线出现凹陷(concave limaçon),2a 是凸性阈值。
参考值区(GL16 数值校验同源)
a=1,b=0.5:outer = 2.220315379633、inner = 0.135879110559、alg = 2.356194490192;b=a=1:outer = 4.712388980385 与心形线 3π/2 一致。
