Thanks arildno - that is helpful. Here's my understanding of what I read: Given a parameterized form of the equation, I can calculate the values T, N, and B. Furthermore I can calculate their derivatives with respect to s. This provides the inputs needed to solve for kappa and tau using...

I have an equation for a curve that lies along the surface of a truncated cone. In polar coordinates: theta(r) = K * [ U + arctan(1/U) - (Pi/2) ] where: U = SQRT[ ((r/r1)^2) - 1 ] K = SQRT[ 1 + (H/(r2-r1))^2 ] r = r1 + (r2-r1)(z/H) r1 = minor radius of the truncated cone r2 =...
