Novel Approaches in Mathematical Description of Hen Egg Geometry
Original language description
Precise quantification of the profile of a hen egg can provide a powerful tool for analysis of egg shape and following solving of various technological problems. The article presents a new approach of the eggshell geometry determination using and analyzing the egg digital image and edge detection techniques. The detected points on the eggshell contour were fitted by the Fourier series. The obtained equations describing an egg profile were used to calculate the egg volume, surface area, and radius of curvature with a much higher degree of precision in comparison with previously published approaches. It was shown that radii of curvature at the critical points of the egg profile are independent on the egg shape index. The article shows and quantifies thelimitations of the common and frequent procedures.
