Control Equation of equidistantly sine wave on Archimedean Spiral I am trying to figure out how to control the equation to make a controllable equidistantly sine wave(or you can say same period sine wave) on spiral with some parameters.
I want to Offset a constant distant d on a spiral.
I successfully made a equation of Archimedean Spiral which can be controlled by some parameters.
BUT the sine waves are not same period.
The parametric form of Archimedean Spiral is:
$$x(t) = a\cdot t\cdot \cos(t)$$
$$y(t) = a\cdot t\cdot \sin(t)$$
To make a distant d, I need to know the Normal unit vector of the equation.
First I differentiate the parameter formula to obtain the tangent vector(T1)
and I get:
$$T1 = (a\cdot cos(b\cdot t)-b\cdot t \cdot sin(b\cdot t), b\cdot t \cdot cos(b\cdot t)+ a\cdot sin(b\cdot t))$$
then normalize T1 by Wolfram(1)
can get T2;
$$T2 = (a\cos(bt)-bt\sin(bt), bt\cos(bt)+ a\sin(bt))\frac{1}{\sqrt{b^2 t^2 + 1}}$$
Next, differentiate T2 to get Normal vector N1 by Wolfram(2)
get N1 and simplify:
$$N1 = (-\sin(bt)-bt\cos(bt), \cos(bt)-bt\sin(bt))\frac{b(b^2 t^2 + 1)}{\sqrt{b^2 t^2 + 1}^(3/2)}$$
the unit vector of N1 will be N2 show as:
$$N2 = (\sin(bt)+bt\cos(bt), -\cos(bt)+bt\sin(bt))\frac{-1}{\sqrt{b^2 t^2 + 1}^(1/2)}$$
So a point P on the spiral offset along the normal direction with a distant d can be like:

then I change d to d'; d' = d(1 + A * sin(25t)) to make 25 sine waves on the spiral, and the amplitude can be control by parameter  A(it is from 0 ~ 1)
I draw on Desmos to show out :https://www.desmos.com/calculator/kvtd6aihab

Watch the gif in the comments' link[gif]
I wonder how to fix the equation to make every sine wave have the same period.
I found some similar example.
Equation of sine wave around a spiral?
this one is about same period sine wave.
$$x(t) = (at + \sin(bt^2)) \cos(t)$$
$$y(t) = (at + \sin(bt^2)) \sin(t)$$
I try some ways on my desmos. I add some exponential parameter to decay the sine wave but it's not good enough
https://www.desmos.com/calculator/89yyu30xcr
So I try to use MATLAB to do the same calculation steps but always fail
MY GOAL:
1.Use the MATLAB to do the same steps as original Archimedean Spiral equation on the same period sine waves equation
$$x(t) = (at + \sin(bt^2)) \cos(t)$$
$$y(t) = (at + \sin(bt^2)) \sin(t)$$
2.Add some decay equation on the offset d equation to make every sine wave same period.
Please help me! Thank you!
 A: $\newcommand{\Vec}[1]{\mathbf{#1}}$Not entirely sure I understand what you're asking, but briefly, the period of the sine is non-constant because the spiral is not parametrized at constant speed.
Here are some ideas, including suggestions for managing the calculations manually and framing in terms of the differential geometry of plane curves, that are too long for a comment.
Let $a > 0$ be a real number. The Archimedean spiral $x(t) = at\cos t$, $y(t) = at\sin t$ is a polar graph $r = at$. Let's first work out some formulas for general polar graphs.
Generalities: The polar graph $r = f(t)$ and its derivatives are conveniently expressed in terms of the orthonormal vector-valued functions
$$
\Vec{e}_{1}(t) = (\cos t, \sin t),\quad
\Vec{e}_{2}(t) = \Vec{e}_{1}'(t) = (-\sin t, \cos t).
$$
We have $(x(t), y(t)) = f(t) \Vec{e}_{1}(t)$, so the product rule gives $(x'(t), y'(t)) = f'(t) \Vec{e}_{1}(t) + f(t) \Vec{e}_{2}(t)$. The unit tangent vector is
$$
T(t) = \frac{f'(t) \Vec{e}_{1}(t) + f(t) \Vec{e}_{2}(t)}{\sqrt{f(t)^{2} + f'(t)^{2}}}.
$$
A unit normal field may be found by rotating this a quarter turn counterclockwise:
$$
N(t) = \frac{f'(t) \Vec{e}_{2}(t) - f(t) \Vec{e}_{1}(t)}{\sqrt{f(t)^{2} + f'(t)^{2}}}.
$$
The remaining issue in "deforming" the polar graph in a controlled way is to parametrize by arc length. This can always be done in principle, but cannot always be done in closed form. Fix a starting parameter $t_{0}$, and define the arc length function by
$$
s(t) = \int_{t_{0}}^{t} \sqrt{f(u)^{2} + f'(u)^{2}}\, du.
$$
This is strictly increasing (unless we try hard to make it otherwise), so there is an inverse function $t = \tau(s)$. Substituting, we obtain the unit speed parametrization
$$
X(s) = (x(\tau(s)), y(\tau(s))) = f(\tau(s)) (\cos \tau(s), \sin \tau(s)).
$$
Because $T$ and $N$ are geometrically-defined, $T(t) = T(\tau(s))$ and $N(t) = N(\tau(s))$.
If we perturb $X$ by a fixed-frequency (with respect to arc length) sine wave, the period will be constant.
Archimedean spiral: We have $f(t) = at$, so $f'(t) = a$, $\sqrt{f(t)^{2} + f'(t)^{2}} = a\sqrt{1 + t^{2}}$, and
$$
s = a \int_{0}^{t} \sqrt{1 + u^{2}}\, du
= \tfrac{1}{2}a[t\sqrt{1 + t^{2}} + \ln(t + \sqrt{1 + t^{2}})].
$$
(This may also be written in terms of hyperbolic functions.) In order to parametrize the Archimdean spiral by arc length, we have to invert this functional relation, which appears to be doable only numerically. Let's continue to write $t = \tau(s)$ for the inverse.
We have $X(s) = a\tau(s)(\cos\tau(s), \sin\tau(s))$ and
$$
N(\tau(s)) = \frac{(-\sin\tau(s), \cos\tau(s)) - \tau(s)(\cos\tau(s), \sin\tau(s))}{\sqrt{1 + \tau(s)^{2}}}.
$$
To parametrize the curve offset by a distance $d = g(s)$, we may use $X(s) + g(s)N(\tau(s))$.
