  2. Cross section (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_section_(geometry)

    The cross-sectional area (′) of an object when viewed from a particular angle is the total area of the orthographic projection of the object from that angle. For example, a cylinder of height h and radius r has A ′ = π r 2 {\displaystyle A'=\pi r^{2}} when viewed along its central axis, and A ′ = 2 r h {\displaystyle A'=2rh} when viewed ...

  3. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    The lateral area, L, of a circular cylinder, which need not be a right cylinder, is more generally given by =, where e is the length of an element and p is the perimeter of a right section of the cylinder. [9] This produces the previous formula for lateral area when the cylinder is a right circular cylinder.

  4. List of second moments of area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_second_moments_of_area

    The parallel axis theorem can be used to determine the second moment of area of a rigid body about any axis, given the body's second moment of area about a parallel axis through the body's centroid, the area of the cross section, and the perpendicular distance (d) between the axes. ′ = +

  5. Hydraulic diameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_diameter

    A is the cross-sectional area of the flow, P is the wetted perimeter of the cross-section. More intuitively, the hydraulic diameter can be understood as a function of the hydraulic radius R H, which is defined as the cross-sectional area of the channel divided by the wetted perimeter. Here, the wetted perimeter includes all surfaces acted upon ...

  6. Cavalieri's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavalieri's_principle

    For every height , the disk-shaped cross-sectional area () of the flipped paraboloid is equal to the ring-shaped cross-sectional area () of the cylinder part outside the inscribed paraboloid. Therefore, the volume of the flipped paraboloid is equal to the volume of the cylinder part outside the inscribed paraboloid.

  7. Darcy's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy's_law

    Diagram showing definitions and directions for Darcy's law. A is the cross sectional area (m 2) of the cylinder. Q is the flow rate (m 3 /s) of the fluid flowing through the area A. The flux of fluid through A is q = Q/A. L is the length of the cylinder. Δp = p outlet - p inlet = p b - p a.

  8. Torsion constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion_constant

    In 1820, the French engineer A. Duleau derived analytically that the torsion constant of a beam is identical to the second moment of area normal to the section J zz, which has an exact analytic equation, by assuming that a plane section before twisting remains planar after twisting, and a diameter remains a straight line.

  9. Steinmetz solid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steinmetz_solid

    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 ...
