  2. 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 ...

  3. Steinmetz curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steinmetz_curve

    Steinmetz curves for various cases Steinmetz solid (intersection of two cylinders) involving Steinmetz curves (purple). A Steinmetz curve is the curve of intersection of two right circular cylinders of radii and , whose axes intersect perpendicularly.

  4. 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.

  5. Intersection curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_curve

    The intersection of two planes. The analytic determination of the intersection curve of two surfaces is easy only in simple cases; for example: a) the intersection of two planes, b) plane section of a quadric (sphere, cylinder, cone, etc.), c) intersection of two quadrics in special cases. For the general case, literature provides algorithms ...

  6. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    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. Ungula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ungula

    The volume of an ungula of a cylinder was calculated by Grégoire de Saint Vincent. [2] Two cylinders with equal radii and perpendicular axes intersect in four double ungulae. [3] The bicylinder formed by the intersection had been measured by Archimedes in The Method of Mechanical Theorems, but the manuscript was lost until 1906.

  8. Graduated cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graduated_cylinder

    For accuracy the volume on graduated cylinders is depicted on scales with 3 significant digits: 100mL cylinders have 1ml grading divisions while 10mL cylinders have 0.1 mL grading divisions. Two classes of accuracy exist for graduated cylinders. Class A has double the accuracy of class B. [4] Cylinders can have single or double scales. Single ...

  9. Sphere–cylinder intersection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphere–cylinder_intersection

    Viviani's curve as intersection of a sphere and a cylinder. In the case = +, the cylinder and sphere are tangential to each other at point (,,). The intersection resembles a figure eight: it is a closed curve which intersects itself. The above parametrization becomes
