  2. 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.

  3. Lateral surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_surface

    More generally, the lateral surface area of a prism is the sum of the areas of the sides of the prism. [1] This lateral surface area can be calculated by multiplying the perimeter of the base by the height of the prism. [2] For a right circular cylinder of radius r and height h, the lateral area is the area of the side surface of the cylinder ...

  4. Right circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_circular_cylinder

    Illustration of a cylinder and the planification of its lateral surface. The lateral surface of a right cylinder is the meeting of the generatrices. [3] It can be obtained by the product between the length of the circumference of the base and the height of the cylinder. Therefore, the lateral surface area is given by: =. [2]

  5. Area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area

    For a solid shape such as a sphere, cone, or cylinder, the area of its boundary surface is called the surface area. [1] [6] [7] Formulas for the surface areas of simple shapes were computed by the ancient Greeks, but computing the surface area of a more complicated shape usually requires multivariable calculus.

  6. Surface area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_area

    A sphere of radius r has surface area 4πr 2.. The surface area (symbol A) of a solid object is a measure of the total area that the surface of the object occupies. [1] The mathematical definition of surface area in the presence of curved surfaces is considerably more involved than the definition of arc length of one-dimensional curves, or of the surface area for polyhedra (i.e., objects with ...

  7. Ruled surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruled_surface

    Examples include the plane, the lateral surface of a cylinder or cone, a conical surface with elliptical directrix, the right conoid, the helicoid, and the tangent developable of a smooth curve in space. A ruled surface can be described as the set of points swept by a moving straight line.

  8. 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 ...

    They gave those formulas in two forms: in the basic and using standardized variables. If one assumes that N asperities covers a rough surface, then the expected number of contacts is = The expected total area of contact can be calculated from the formula
