Plotting curves with increasing radius

Dear all,
I wanted to know if there is any way to plot a curve with increasing radius. This curve has to go around a circle.
Thanks for your help.

Bring up your diagram somehow on the computer, be it in Photoshop or whatever. Type alt-Printscreen to capture the current window into the clipboard. Go to http://snag.gy and type control-V to paste it in. Note the URL it gives you and come back here and tell us what it is.

Your sample diagram look like spirals to me, other than that the radius might not be increasing linearly.
Use pol2cart() to switch between an (r, theta) form vs (x,y) coordinates.

I see a circle and two spirals. Is this what you're looking for?
theta = linspace(pi/2+2*pi, pi/2, 100);
r = cell(3,1);
r{1} = ones(size(theta)); % The circle
r{2} = linspace(1, 0.5, 60); % Spiral in
r{3} = linspace(1, 1.5, 60); % Spiral out
for ii = 1:3
[x{ii}, y{ii}] = pol2cart(theta(1:length(r{ii})), r{ii});
end
xy = [x;y]; plot(xy{:}); axis equal;

You say "I have the data for them" so why don't you just use the plot() function and plot them? Am I missing something???

Try this out:
[x,y] = meshgrid(1:150,1:100);
[th, rho] = cart2pol(x - 75,y - 50); % convert to polar
% spiral centered at (75,50)
Img = sin(r/3 + th);
imagesc(Img); colormap(hot);
axis equal; axis off;
