  2. Frustum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frustum

    A right frustum is a right pyramid or a right cone truncated perpendicularly to its axis; [3] otherwise, it is an oblique frustum. In a truncated cone or truncated pyramid, the truncation plane is not necessarily parallel to the cone's base, as in a frustum. If all its edges are forced to become of the same length, then a frustum becomes a ...

  3. Tree volume measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_volume_measurement

    The formula for the volume of a frustum of a paraboloid [23] [24] is: V = (π h/2)(r 1 2 + r 2 2), where h = height of the frustum, r 1 is the radius of the base of the frustum, and r 2 is the radius of the top of the frustum. This allows us to use a paraboloid frustum where that form appears more appropriate than a cone.

  4. Tree measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_measurement

    Cumulative trunk volume is calculated by adding the volume of the measured segments of the tree together. The volume of each segment is calculated as the volume of a frustum of a cone where: Volume= h(π/3)(r 1 2 + r 2 2 +r 1 r 2) Frustum of a cone

  5. List of centroids - Wikipedia

    Volume Cuboid: a, b = the sides of the cuboid's base ... Right circular solid cone: r = the radius of the cone's base h = the distance is from base to the apex ...

  6. Heronian mean - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heronian_mean

    A square frustum, with volume equal to the height times the Heronian mean of the square areas. The Heronian mean may be used in finding the volume of a frustum of a pyramid or cone. The volume is equal to the product of the height of the frustum and the Heronian mean of the areas of the opposing parallel faces. [2]

  7. Spherical cap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_cap

    An example of a spherical cap in blue (and another in red) In geometry, a spherical cap or spherical dome is a portion of a sphere or of a ball cut off by a plane.It is also a spherical segment of one base, i.e., bounded by a single plane.

  8. Cone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone

    A cone with a region including its apex cut off by a plane is called a truncated cone; if the truncation plane is parallel to the cone's base, it is called a frustum. [1] An elliptical cone is a cone with an elliptical base. [1] A generalized cone is the surface created by the set of lines passing through a vertex and every point on a boundary ...

  9. Shell integration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_integration

    Much more work is needed to find the volume if we use disc integration. First, we would need to solve y = 8 ( x − 1 ) 2 ( x − 2 ) 2 {\displaystyle y=8(x-1)^{2}(x-2)^{2}} for x . Next, because the volume is hollow in the middle, we would need two functions: one that defined an outer solid and one that defined the inner hollow.
