Extended Data Fig. 10: Small-radius (“adiabatic”) limit of trajectoids.
From: Solid-body trajectoids shaped to roll along desired pathways
a–c, Effect of ball radius \(r\) (or path’s scale \(\sigma =L/(2{\rm{\pi }}r)\)) on the trace of the contact point upon rolling along a finite smooth path (two periods of path from Fig. 4k). Value of \(r\) decreases from a to b to c. See Supplementary Video 8 for more details. d,e–g, Effect of ball radius \(r\) (or path’s scale \(\sigma =L/(2{\rm{\pi }}r)\)) on the trace of the contact point upon rolling along a polygonal path (path shown in d). Value of \(r\) decreases from e to f to g. See Supplementary Video 8 for more details.
