Hi, I have an mathematics assignment to do, and I wonder if the topic I have chosen is doable for me. I want to minimize the surface area of a cobbler cocktail shaker, and until now my plan was to get the curve equation for the side of it, and get the area equation from surface of revolution...

While the article is quite interesting one, it doesn't really say the name of that particular software...and I honestly doubt it could be downloaded just like that. Thank you for your help though, it is appreciated.

Like in the title, is there a software that allows you to draw a curve or even better, input a picture and select a curve on it, in order to get the equation of that curve as a function? Would be glad for help, I need it for my mathematics exploration on minimizing surface area of a vase-like...

Thank you very much for your help, thanks to you I am able to continue my project. Interesting thing about convection you said, last time I checked there was a quite simple formula for it, only one constant was complicated as it was responsible for conveying the position of object in...

Your last paragraph kinda describes what I am doing :D I checked conduction, convection is waay complicated for me, and radiation is left, so I am trying to get a good prediction equation. When you said to ignore everything except the surface area, did you mean all the constants? I don't see...
