Polygon of convex arcs

Question

Convex polygons in the plane $R^2$ arise in linear programming where the constraints are linear. The objective linear function attains its maximum at a vertex of the feasible region(if exists).
Assume that the constraints are presented by convex functions instead of linear ones. In this case, the feasible region if exists will be a region bounded by convex arcs(maybe line segments also). For example the conditions $y-x^2\le 5$ and $100x-(y-2)^2\le 100$ for non-negative values of $x,y$ gives such region as shown in the following figure.

My Question
Is there any study of such regions as generalized polygons considering its area, convexity, starshapedness, supporting lines and so on? I failed to find one using many keywords. So, if the answer is yes, please I need a reference and keywords if possible.
If the answer is no, do you think a study of these polygons is significant enough to consider as a research topic?
Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

OP: "please I need a reference and keywords if possible." There is literature that goes under the names "circular-arc polygons" and "conic-arc polygons."
