  2. Roundness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roundness

    Roundness is dominated by the shape's gross features rather than the definition of its edges and corners, or the surface roughness of a manufactured object. A smooth ellipse can have low roundness, if its eccentricity is large. Regular polygons increase their roundness with increasing numbers of sides, even though they are still sharp-edged.

    Axis: straight vs. curved. Size of cross-section as it is swept along an axis: constant vs. expanding (or contracting) vs. expanding then contracting vs. contracting then expanding. The cross section size of a "brick" would be constant. Termination of geon with constant sized cross-sections: truncated vs. converging to a point vs. rounded.

  4. Body roundness index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_roundness_index

    [1] [2] Thomas visualized the human body shape as an egg or ellipse rather than as the cylinder model that is envisioned in the concept of the BMI. [1] [2] The degree of circularity of an ellipse is quantified by eccentricity, with values between 0 to 1, where 0 is a perfect circle (waist circumference same as height) and 1 is a vertical line.

    But they involve different contents: the visual perception ascribes the property of roundness to the apple while the gustatory perception ascribes the property of sweetness to the apple. Touching the apple will also result in a perceptual experience ascribing roundness to the apple, but the roundness is presented in a different manner.

    [1] [2] The interpersonal circumplex is defined by two orthogonal axes: a vertical axis (of status, dominance, power, ambitiousness, assertiveness, or control) and a horizontal axis (of agreeableness, compassion, nurturant, solidarity, friendliness, warmth, affiliation or love).
