ParametricCatalanMinimal(**kwargs)[source]#

Generate Catalan’s minimal surface.

ParametricCatalanMinimal generates Catalan’s minimal surface parametrically. This minimal surface contains the cycloid as a geodesic.

Parameters:
**kwargsdict, optional

See surface_from_para() for additional keyword arguments.

Returns:
pyvista.PolyData

ParametricCatalanMinimal surface.
