#circle_of_curvature__osculating_circle the circle that touches a curve (on the concave side) and whose radius is the radius of curvature
supertype: #circle ellipse in which the two axes are of equal length; a plane curve generated by one point moving at a constant distance from a fixed point; "he calculated the circumference of the circle"
supertype: #ellipse__oval a closed plane curve resulting from the intersection of a circular cone and a plane cutting completely through it; "the sums of the distances from the foci to any point on an ellipse is constant"
supertype: #conic_section__conicsection__conic (geometry) a curve generated by the intersection of a plane and a circular cone
supertype: #plane_figure__planefigure__two-dimensional_figure__twodimensionalfigure a two-dimensional shape
supertype: #figure.shape a combination of points and lines and planes that form a visible palpable shape
supertype: #shape__form the spatial arrangement of something as distinct from its substance; "geometry is the mathematical science of shape"
supertype: pm#space point or extent in space
supertype: pm#spatial_object__spatialobject object which as a direct spatial location, e.g., physical object, spatial region or shape
supertype: sumo#object__entity_with_spatial_feature spatial object (space, location or physical object) or description medium/container (e.g., string, language, image); in a 4D ontology, an object is something whose spatiotemporal extent is thought of as dividing into spatial parts roughly parallel to the time-axis
supertype: pm#entity something that can be "involved" in a situation
supertype: pm#thing__something___T__t___3D_or_4D_thing_or_anything_else any category (type or individual) is instance of this type; any type is also a subtype of this type
supertype: sumo#physical__physical_thing an entity that has a location in space-time; locations are themselves understood to have a location in space-time; click here for more details on the identical category sowa#physical_thing
supertype: pm#thing__something___T__t___3D_or_4D_thing_or_anything_else any category (type or individual) is instance of this type; any type is also a subtype of this type
supertype: cyc#partially_tangible__partiallytangible A subcollection of cyc#SpatialThing-Localized and cyc#TemporalThing. Each instance of cyc#PartiallyTangible has a tangible (i.e. material) part and a temporal extent (i.e. it exists in time). It might or might not also have an intangible part. For example, a particular copy of a book is made of matter, has temporal extent, and also has an intangible part: the information content of the text markings on its pages.
supertype: pm#thing__something___T__t___3D_or_4D_thing_or_anything_else any category (type or individual) is instance of this type; any type is also a subtype of this type
supertype: pm#individual__particular___supertype_of_1st_order_types all individuals (for concepts or relations) are implicitely or explicitely instance of that type
supertype: pm#thing__something___T__t___3D_or_4D_thing_or_anything_else any category (type or individual) is instance of this type; any type is also a subtype of this type
