Review text

In [Comput. Aided Geom. Des. 64, 11--14 (2018; Zbl 1439.53014)] \textit{N. Lubbes} and \textit{J. Schicho} observed that certain Darboux cyclides arise as orbits of 2-parametric motions obtained from ruled quadrics via Study's kinematic mapping. The paper generalizes this result and provides a discussion of Darboux cyclides that can be generated via the intersection of the Study quadric with a 3-space. In doing so, they encounter new parametric equations for some Darboux cyclide patches and also unveil interesting kinematic relations. The authors' discussion is complete in the sense that the possibility to generate a certain Darboux cyclide type from a certain quadric type is either disproved, proved by example, or justifiably discarded. Darboux cyclides consisting of two ovals are not amenable to generation via quadrics in the Study quadric and their generation via quartic ruled surfaces is promised for a forthcoming paper. Methods used in this paper are more elementary than those of \textit{N. Lubbes} and \textit{J. Schicho} but nonetheless require a good understanding of the interplay between the Möbius transformations of the right quaternionic projective line and Study's kinematic mapping via dual quaternions. This is outlined in sufficient detail on the article's first seven pages.
