  1. prolate cycloid

    A prolate cycloid is a type of cycloid curve generated by a point on the circumference of a circle, in such a way that the circle is rolling along a straight line without slipping, and the rolling circle's diameter is greater than the straight line's length. This results in a curve that loops back on itself instead of forming a series of arches, as with standard cycloid curves.
