unusual facts about The Curve



Persiaran Surian, Petaling Jaya

During weekends and public holidays, the driveway becomes a main popular route to Mutiara Damansara town centre such as The Curve, Ikano Power Centre, IKEA and Cathay Cineleisure.

Asymptote

An important case is when the curve is the graph of a real function (a function of one real variable and returning real values).

Blancmange curve

It is also known as the Takagi curve, after Teiji Takagi who described it in 1903, or as the Takagi–Landsberg curve, a generalization of the curve named after Takagi and Georg Landsberg.

Centered trochoid

This degenerate case, in which the curve is a straight-line segment, underlies the Tusi-couple.

Charlie Getzein

The Scientific American magazine responded in July 1886 by publishing an article written by Henry Chadwick (accompanied by several diagrams, two of which are reproduced above) explaining the physics behind the curve ball pitch.

Columbia University traditions

On the day before the Organic Chemistry exam—which is often on the first day of finals—at precisely the stroke of midnight, the Columbia University Marching Band occupies Butler Library to distract diligent students from studying in an attempt to raise the curve on the organic chemistry exam.

Great Gatsby curve

The name of the curve refers, somewhat ironically, to Jay Gatsby (born Gatz), the character in F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel The Great Gatsby.

Hump

Kyphosis, the curve on an upper spine that causes a hunchback

Light curve

The point on the curve where these two differing slopes meet is called the light saturation point and is where the light-dependent reactions are producing more ATP and NADPH than can be utilized by the light-independent reactions.

Meander

As a waveform the meandering stream follows the down-valley axis, a straight line fitted to the curve such that the sum of all the amplitudes measured from it is zero.

Palaeocursornis

However, that genus name had already been given to the Curve-billed Reedhaunter (L. curvirostris), an ovenbird.

Roman Catholic Diocese of Alleppey

The boundaries are: on the north, the Kuthiathodu CanalLine; on the south, a straight line from the curve of the Pampa River at Viyapuram to the Arabian Sea through Thottappally; on the east, a line along the middle of the Vembanadu Lake continued to the south by the Pallathuruthy Canal, one of the main branches of the Pampa River, to Viyapuram; on the west, the Arabian sea

Southampton and Dorchester Railway

He also criticised the sharp curve at Northam where the line joined the existing LSWR route; the company agreed to alter the curve to a larger radius.

Stapleford Park

The tight bend was a nuisance for the express trains and, later when the Midland and Great Northern Joint Railway built a branch to Saxby, the opportunity was taken to reduce the curve with Saxby station being moved in the process.

Vector field

The line integral is constructed analogously to the Riemann integral and it exists if the curve is rectifiable (has finite length) and the vector field is continuous.
