    The generation of a bicylinder Calculating the volume of a bicylinder. A bicylinder generated by two cylinders with radius r has the volume =, and the surface area [1] [6] =.. The upper half of a bicylinder is the square case of a domical vault, a dome-shaped solid based on any convex polygon whose cross-sections are similar copies of the polygon, and analogous formulas calculating the volume ...

  5. Line-cylinder intersection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line-cylinder_intersection

    Green line has two intersections. Yellow line lies tangent to the cylinder, so has infinitely many points of intersection. Line-cylinder intersection is the calculation of any points of intersection, given an analytic geometry description of a line and a cylinder in 3d space. An arbitrary line and cylinder may have no intersection at all.

    A cylindric section is the intersection of a cylinder's surface with a plane. They are, in general, curves and are special types of plane sections. The cylindric section by a plane that contains two elements of a cylinder is a parallelogram. [4] Such a cylindric section of a right cylinder is a rectangle. [4]

  7. On the Sphere and Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_the_Sphere_and_Cylinder

    The ratio of the volume of a sphere to the volume of its circumscribed cylinder is 2:3, as was determined by Archimedes. The principal formulae derived in On the Sphere and Cylinder are those mentioned above: the surface area of the sphere, the volume of the contained ball, and surface area and volume of the cylinder.

  8. The Method of Mechanical Theorems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Method_of_Mechanical...

    The condition of balance ensures that the volume of the cone plus the volume of the sphere is equal to the volume of the cylinder. The volume of the cylinder is the cross section area, times the height, which is 2, or . Archimedes could also find the volume of the cone using the mechanical method, since, in modern terms, the integral involved ...
