Summary
Curvature of surfaces
is a
measure of how a surface deviates from being flat
, characterized by the
Gaussian curvature
derived from the
product of the principal curvatures
at a point.
Understanding surface curvature
is crucial in fields like
differential geometry
, computer graphics, and
general relativity
, as it informs the shape, behavior, and
properties of surfaces
in space.
