The Elementary Part of a Treatise on the Dynamics of a ...
That a smooth cyoloid is tautochronous in vacuo for a heavy particle was first
proved by Huygens in his Horologium Oscillatorium, 1673. Newton extended this
to the case in which the resistance is 2kv, and also proved that a smooth
epicycloid ...

Elementary Rigid Dynamics
The tautochronous arcs terminate at the point given by F = O and the period is -zr/
2m. 494:. That cycloidal oscillations in a medium in which the resistance varies
as the velocity are tautochronous has been proved by Newton in the second ...
7.2, rather than a circular track, its motion will be perfectly tautochronous (under
the constant gravity field of the earth). The radius of curvature of the cycloid near
the point O is 4a, hence one understands why the complete period of oscillation ...

If a body move upon a curve, the curve is said to be tautochronous, if the time of
descent to a given point he the same, from whatever point the body begin to
descend. We shall consider the body as descending to the lowest point. ' PROP.

X This expression is independent of h and therefore points out the remarkable
fact that however large the arc of vibration be the time of oscillation is the same in
all. For this reason the cycloid is called a Tautochronous Curve. * Prop. A particle
