This example demonstrates the dynamic visualization of the intersection curves of two parametric surfaces in 3D space. The core mathematical concepts include parametric surfaces, intersection solving, and geometric transformations. The construction uses GeoGebra commands such as Surface to define the two surfaces, Textfield and InputBox for parameter input, sliders to control parameter ranges (e.g., u1min, u1max), and Polygon and Length for auxiliary grid construction. Multiple variables (xmax, ymin, zmax, etc.) and a zoom control (zoom3D) are used, along with interactive buttons (button1, etc.) to adjust the view. It is suitable for high school or university courses in solid geometry, calculus, or computer-aided geometry, helping students intuitively understand the complex structure of intersecting parametric surfaces.
