Up: Figure-8 Immersion of the Torus

MPEG Movies of the Figure-8 Torus

The torus rotates toward the camera for a better view of the subsequent motion. The torus rotates clockwise about a line, then tilts for a head-on view and more clockwise rotation. Then it returns to its start position.

The surface is set at 67% transparency and executes the same rotation seen in the previous movie.

Grid skeleton of the surface rotating in 3 dimensions, executing the same rotations seen in the previous movie. A yellow band has been added to the grid skeleton for reference.

Bands of the surface rotating in 3 dimensions. The surfaces turns through space and executes a rotation about an axis similar to those seen in the previous movies.
