below are few of equation to generate curves using CREO ... enjoy ...

The z variable is not necessary, but when used will give the curve that extra dimension. If in doubt, try z = t*10.

Cartesian coordinates

x = 50 * t

y = 10 * sin (t * 360)

Cartesian coordinates

theta = t * 360 * 4

x = 25 + (10-6) * cos (theta) +10 * cos ((10/6-1) * theta)

y = 25 + (10-6) * sin (theta) - 6 * sin ((10/6-1) * theta)

Cartesian coordinates

r = 1

ang = 360 * t

s = 2 * pi * r * t

x0 = s * cos (ang)

y0 = s * sin (ang)

x = x0 + s * sin (ang)

y = y0-s * cos (ang)

Cartesian coordinates
