flat surface Definition and 1 Threads
In mathematics a translation surface is a surface obtained from identifying the sides of a polygon in the Euclidean plane by translations. An equivalent definition is a Riemann surface together with a holomorphic 1-form.
These surfaces arise in dynamical systems where they can be used to model billiards, and in Teichmüller theory. A particularly interesting subclass is that of Veech surfaces (named after William A. Veech) which are the most symmetric ones.

Reaction force to a flat and curved surface study
Hello Engineers, I have two different geometries, where i know the value of pressure. I would like to know the reaction force on both the scenarios. Applying the same pressure on both the geometries, there is not at all difference in reaction force in vertical direction (even though the surface...- jmex
