EggEquation

Universal formula for egg shape. Narushin et Al.

Egg and math: introducing a universal formula for egg shape. Narushin et Al.

y = EggEquation(x,L,w,B,DL4)

inputs:

L is length

W is the negative x-position where the egg is widest

B egg breadth, the width of the egg, at the x-position defined by W

DL4 Width of the egg at x-position Length/4

Example

  L = 55
  w = 10;
  B = 35;
  DL4 =25;
 
  x = linspace(-L./2,L./2,L.*4); 
 
  y = EggEquation(x,L,w,B,DL4)
 
  figure,  hold on;
  plot(x,y,'r'); 
  plot(x,-y,'r'); 
  plot([-w,-w],[-B/2,B/2],'g');
  plot([L/4,L/4],[-DL4/2,DL4/2],'g')
  grid on; axis equal;
