First edition.
Dupin is known for it's theorem and for the cyclides of Dupin.
Today, Dupin cylides are used in computer-aided design (CAD), because cyclide patches have rational representations and are suitable for blending canal surfaces (cylinder, cones, tori, and others).
It's in this work that Dupin use for the first time the word "Cyclid" and give the demonstration of their existance and their main properties.
