epicycle's Usage Examples:

inspired Duhem was Thomas Aquinas, who wrote, regarding eccentrics and epicycles, that Reason may be employed in two ways to establish a point: firstly.

Planets rotated on the epicycles as the epicycles traveled along the deferent.

However, the epicycle"s center will not.

be accurately represented by means of techniques involving the use of epicycles, deferents, eccentrics (whereby planetary motion is conceived as circular.

Earth): 3144 : 327+2⁄3 ; and for the epicycle model, the ratio between the radius of the deferent and the epicycle: 3122+1⁄2 : 247+1⁄2 .

an equant in an astronomic model to be replaced with an equivalent epicycle that moved around a deferent centered at half the distance to the equant point.

deferent, carrying an epicycle along which the Moon was assumed to move in a retrograde direction.

accuracy which led him to eliminate the epicycle in the Ptolemaic solar model and all the eccentrics, epicycles and equant in the Ptolemaic lunar model.

Astronomers often continued using the equants instead of the epicycles because the former was.

This model generally lasted until Ptolemy, who added epicycles to explain the retrograde motion of Mars.

sphere/slice is the deferent, with a centre offset somewhat from the Earth; the other sphere/slice is an epicycle embedded in the deferent, with the planet.

This concerns the Urdi lemma in particular, an extension of Apollonius' theorem that allowed an equant in an astronomic model to be replaced with an equivalent epicycle that moved around a deferent centered at half the distance to the equant point.
