Summary: | In this paper, we analyze the <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msup><mi>C</mi><mo>∞</mo></msup></semantics></math></inline-formula> smooth curve of constant width using the characteristic equation of a time delay system. We prove that a closed convex curve must be a circle if it is still a smooth curve of constant width after taking any number of derivatives. Finally, the simulation results are presented for analyzing the influence of derivative orders on a smooth non-circular curve of constant width. |
