摘要

The paper deals with non-convexity measure calculation of a helix in three-dimensional space. The key calculation element is constructing the set bisector and finding the angular characteristics of the bisector points. The equation to measure non-convexity as the upper value limit the angular characteristic is derived. A theorem is proved on the conditions that a measure of non-convexity of a curve reaches the maximum possible value of π. The problem solution is simulated for two helices with various parameters. The results obtained are visualized.
