Abstract
This report presents a simple approach for visualizing some common mathematical minimal surfaces using MATLAB tools. The studied minimal surfaces were the gyroid, lidinoid, Schwarz P surface, Schwarz D surface, Scherk tower, helicoid surface, catenoid surface, and Mobius strip. For each, the mathematic definition is given along with a simple MATLAB code for it and an example 3-D surface plot generated from the given code.
