  • Contour map patterns
    Puc, Sabina ; Škrekovski, Riste
    In this article we present a procedure for constructing repeating patterns which is based on the concept of contour lines of maps of surfaces generated by periodic functions of two variables. The ... 3D-graph of a prescribed function is cut by selected horizontal planes, and contour lines are projected onto the plane ▫$z = 0$▫. Then, the corresponding regions are coloured, and the result is a repeating pattern. This procedure is demonstrated on various examples using the command ContourPlot of Mathematica. By overlaying several such contour maps, we obtain patterns with rich structure that creates impression of depth. We also study how functional properties such as symmetry and parity influence the pattern.
