Code to generate certain geometric surfaces and to embed images onto surfaces.
The mean curvature of a surface is the product of the principle curvatures and is denoted by H.
A surface is called a CMC Surface if it has constant mean curvature everywhere.
A special subset of a CMC Surface is when the surface has zero mean curvature everywhere. These surfaces are called minimal surfaces.
In this Python Notebook, we generate some of these surfaces (as well as some others) using Matplotlib.
The aim here was to practise embedding images onto a surface. To use an image we used:
import matplotlib.image as mpimg
Therefore a PNG image was used.
