Abstract
We present a closed-formula description for the unwrappings of the developable surfaces based on information obtained mainly by plane intersection curves on them. Among other applications, this description is suitable for computational implementation in CAD systems, for the construction of visual pictures of unwrappings onto planes, and for the computer graphic modeling of the approximations of real-object surfaces via the developable ones.
