  2. Packing problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packing_problems

    Packing problems are a class of optimization problems in mathematics that involve attempting to pack objects together into containers. The goal is to either pack a single container as densely as possible or pack all objects using as few containers as possible. Many of these problems can be related to real-life packaging, storage and ...

  3. Napkin ring problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napkin_ring_problem

    In geometry, the napkin-ring problem involves finding the volume of a "band" of specified height around a sphere, i.e. the part that remains after a hole in the shape of a circular cylinder is drilled through the center of the sphere. It is a counterintuitive fact that this volume does not depend on the original sphere's radius but only on the ...

    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 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goat_grazing_problem

    Recreational mathematics planar boundary and area problem. The goat grazing problem is either of two related problems in recreational mathematics involving a tethered goat grazing a circular area: the interior grazing problem and the exterior grazing problem. The former involves grazing the interior of a circular area, and the latter, grazing ...

  6. Line-cylinder intersection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line-cylinder_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. Or there may be one or two points of intersection. [1] Or a line may lie along the surface of a cylinder, parallel to its axis ...

  7. Poincaré conjecture - Wikipedia

    e. In the mathematical field of geometric topology, the Poincaré conjecture (UK: / ˈpwæ̃kæreɪ /, [2] US: / ˌpwæ̃kɑːˈreɪ /, [3][4] French: [pwɛ̃kaʁe]) is a theorem about the characterization of the 3-sphere, which is the hypersphere that bounds the unit ball in four-dimensional space. Originally conjectured by Henri Poincaré in ...
