concentric circles
Non concentric circles are circles that do not share the same center point.
"Concentric" means to have a common center. Concentric circles are circles of different sizes that all have the same center -- like a bullseye target.
Concentric circles are the circles with the same center therefore they do not cross with each other as the "center is not considered a point on the circle". An exception would be two circles that are concentric and have the same radius, in which case the circles are indistinct and every point of the circles is an intersection.
The use of concentric circles is most commonly used on a target. Concentric circles are placed around a target in which each concentric circle has the same center.
