Summary
DescriptionChakravyuha-labyrinth.svg | A Hindu or Indian form of labyrinth with a spiral in its center, sometimes associated with the epic Sanskrit terms "Chakravyuha" or "Padmavyuha". (For an alternate version made from circular arcs and with constant-width paths, see File:Chakravyuha-labyrinth-alternate.svg ; for an outlined version, see File:Chakravyuha.svg .) |

The overall basic structure of the windings is partially based on a small JPEG image at the http://www.labyrinthos.net/ site, but the geometry and graphic realization is entirely different. Self-made graphic, created by combining the output of the following two snippets of vector PostScript source code: %! 300 396 translate 1 setlinecap 1 setlinejoin 10 setlinewidth /turn1 250.52877936551 def/turn2 -66.4218215218 def -1 1 scale 0 -60 moveto 100 turn2 cos mul 100 turn2 sin mul 40 180 turn2 arc 0 0 140 turn2 turn1 arc 120 turn1 cos mul 120 turn1 sin mul 20 turn1 turn1 180 add arc 0 0 100 turn1 turn2 arcn stroke 0 0 120 turn1 turn2 arcn 100 turn2 cos mul 100 turn2 sin mul 20 turn2 turn2 180 sub arcn 0 0 80 turn2 180 arc -80 -33.137 -44.1826 -60 0 -60 curveto 0 0 60 -90 180 arc -60 -22.0913 -33.137 -40 0 -40 curveto 0 0 40 -90 180 arc -40 -11.0457 -22.0913 -20 0 -20 curveto 0 0 20 -90 180 arc -13.3333 0 -6.6667 0 0 0 curveto stroke showpage %EOF %! /archim{ %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % PostScript program to display an Archimedean spiral by approximating % it with Bezier curves. %%% Parameters: % centerx = horizontal coordinate of center of spiral % centery = vertical coordinate of center of spiral % rotf = degrees to rotate /sepwid 20 def % width separating successive turnings of spiral % incrm = insert a curve point every these degrees /sweeps swp2 def % number of 360 degree turnings to show % double - 0 to display single spiral, else double %%% Procedures: /pi 3.1415926535898 def/radians 57.295779513082 def /sepwid sepwid pi div 2 div def gsave centerx centery translate rotf rotate /aspiral{/first 1 def lower incrm sweeps 360 mul{8{dup}repeat phase add cos/costh exch def phase add sin/sinth exch def costh mul radians div/thcosth exch def sinth mul radians div/thsinth exch def thcosth sepwid mul/x exch def thsinth sepwid mul/y exch def 0 eq phase 90 eq phase 270 eq or and{/slope 999999999 def}{/slope sinth thcosth add costh thsinth sub div def}ifelse sinth 0 gt sinth 0 eq costh -1 eq and or{/flag -1 def}{/flag 1 def}ifelse /A exch def phase 0 eq phase 180 eq or {A 49.29348 lt A 180 gt A 196.273450852 lt and A 360 gt A 368.8301 lt and A 540 gt A 545.9907 lt and A 720 gt A 724.5217 lt and A 900 gt A 903.6281968 lt and or or or or or{/flag flag neg def}if}if phase 120 eq phase 300 eq or{A 10 lt A 80 gt A 100 lt and or{/flag flag neg def}if}if incrm sub 3{dup}repeat phase add cos sepwid mul mul radians div /prevx exch def phase add sin sepwid mul mul radians div /prevy exch def incrm add 3{dup}repeat phase add cos sepwid mul mul radians div /nextx exch def phase add sin sepwid mul mul radians div /nexty exch def /prevdist x prevx sub dup mul y prevy sub dup mul add sqrt 2.55 div def /nextdist x nextx sub dup mul y nexty sub dup mul add sqrt 2.55 div def /normaliz slope slope mul 1 add sqrt def 0 eq{0 0 moveto/prevbezx phase cos nextdist mul def/prevbezy phase sin nextdist mul def/first 0 def}{first 1 eq{x y moveto/first 0 def}{prevbezx prevbezy x 1 flag mul normaliz div prevdist mul sub y slope flag mul normaliz div prevdist mul sub x y curveto}ifelse /prevbezx x 1 flag mul normaliz div nextdist mul add def /prevbezy y slope flag mul normaliz div nextdist mul add def}ifelse} for stroke}def /phase 0 def aspiral grestore}def 300 396 translate 10 setlinewidth 1 setlinecap 1 -1 scale /centerx 0 def/centery 0 def/rotf 0 def /lower 105 def/swp2 4.17 def/incrm 15 def archim /lower 1500 def/swp2 4.19 def/incrm 7.3203 def archim 40 95.7183 20 -112.6797047102 67.3202952898 arcn stroke /lower 2220 def/swp2 6.19 def/incrm 7.3203 def archim /lower 1920 def/swp2 6.17 def/incrm 15 def archim /lower 1912.1199 def/swp2 5.34 def/incrm 7.8801 def archim /lower 1552.1199 def/swp2 4.34 def/incrm 7.8801 def archim /lower 1560 def/swp2 5.17 def/incrm 15 def archim /lower 1860 def/swp2 5.19 def/incrm 7.3203 def archim -40 98.4102 20 -67.880129774128021 112.1198702259 arc stroke /lower 2272.1199 def/swp2 6.34 def/incrm 7.8801 def archim /lower 2280 def/swp2 7.17 def/incrm 15 def archim /lower 2580 def/swp2 7.19 def/incrm 7.3203 def archim 40 95.7183 40 67.3202952898 180 arc 0 65 lineto stroke showpage %EOF |
