A curve may be both asymptotic and a line of curvature, in which case the curve is a line (such as the rulings of a ruled surface).

What is curvature in differential geometry?

There are two most important types of curvature: extrinsic curvature and intrinsic curvature. The extrinsic curvature of curves in two- and three-space was the first type of curvature to be studied historically, culminating in the Frenet formulas, which describe a space curve entirely in terms of its "curvature," torsion, and the initial starting point and direction. There is also a curvature of surfaces in three-space. The main curvatures that emerged from this scrutiny are the mean curvature, Gaussian curvature, and the shape operator. I advice to read the following article: http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Curvature.html Moreover, I advise add-on for Mathematica CAS, which do calculations in differential geometry. http://digi-area.com/Mathematica/atlas There is a tutorial about the invariants including curvature which calculates for curves and surfaces. http://digi-area.com/Mathematica/atlas/ref/Invariants.php


What is curvature convex of spine?

Curvature convexity of the spine refers to the direction in which the spine curves. A spine with a convex curvature means that the curve of the spine protrudes outward, while a concave curvature means the curve of the spine bends inward. It's important to monitor spinal curvature as abnormal curvatures can lead to various health issues.

What is lordotic?

Lordotic refers to the "lordotic curvature" of the spine. Lordotic curvature of the spine is the natural curves of the spine (when viewed from the side) that allow for even weight distribution and optimal shock absorbing properties.
