  2. Cone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone

    A right circular cone and an oblique circular cone A double cone (not shown infinitely extended) 3D model of a cone. A cone is a three-dimensional geometric shape that tapers smoothly from a flat base (frequently, though not necessarily, circular) to a point called the apex or vertex that is not contained in the base.

  3. Conical surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conical_surface

    An elliptic cone, a special case of a conical surface, shown truncated for simplicity In geometry , a conical surface is an unbounded three-dimensional surface formed from the union of infinite lines that pass through a fixed point and a space curve .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stodola's_cone_law

    The Law of the Ellipse, or Stodola's cone law, [1] [2] is a method for calculating highly nonlinear dependence of extraction pressures with a flow for multistage turbine with high backpressure, when the turbine nozzles are not choked. [3] It is important in turbine off-design calculations.

    If X = Spec k is a point and R is a homogeneous coordinate ring, then the affine cone of R is the (usual) affine cone [disambiguation needed] over the projective variety corresponding to R. If R = ⨁ 0 ∞ I n / I n + 1 {\displaystyle R=\bigoplus _{0}^{\infty }I^{n}/I^{n+1}} for some ideal sheaf I , then Spec X ⁡ R {\displaystyle ...

    Archimedes then considered rotating the triangular region between y = 0 and y = x and x = 2 on the x-y plane around the x-axis, to form a cone. [1]: 18–21 The cross section of this cone is a circle of radius () = and the area of this cross section is

  7. Nose cone design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nose_cone_design

    y is the radius at any point x, as x varies from 0, at the tip of the nose cone, to L. The equations define the two-dimensional profile of the nose shape. The full body of revolution of the nose cone is formed by rotating the profile around the centerline C ⁄ L. While the equations describe the "perfect" shape, practical nose cones are often ...

    Coordinate surfaces of the conical coordinates. The constants b and c were chosen as 1 and 2, respectively. The red sphere represents r = 2, the blue elliptic cone aligned with the vertical z-axis represents μ=cosh(1) and the yellow elliptic cone aligned with the (green) x-axis corresponds to ν 2 = 2/3.
