Klein Bottle

The Klein Bottle is a non-orientable surface with no boundary first described in 1882 by the German mathematician Felix Klein.


A More Mathematical Explanation

x = (aa + cos(v / 2) * sin(u) - sin(v / 2) * sin(2 * u)) * cos(v) y = (aa + cos(v / 2) * sin(u) - sin(v / 2) * sin(2 * u)) * sin(v)

z = sin(v / 2) * sin(u) + cos(v / 2) * sin(2 * u)
