Soap films: minimal surfaces giving (an approximation of) the hyperbolic paraboloid, the helicoid, the catenoid, and not the gyroid.

Has anyone ever managed to persuade a soap film into the Surface of Costa?

I remember my teachers explaining me the hyperbolic paraboloïd with strings and all...bubble are so much more accurate and incredibly more poetic. Thanks

Laurent Chougrani The soap film is only an approximation of the hyperbolic paraboloid - the strings are in fact more accurate. The hyperbolic paraboloid is not a minimal surface, so the soap film won't find that precise surface. See spacesymmetrystructure.wordpress.com/2007/07/25/on-the-non-minimality-of-hypars/

"The hyperbolic paraboloid is not a minimal surface, but several people (including Chuck Hoberman) make the mistake of saying it is" I guess i was one of them ^^. Thanks for the answer
