  2. Body surface area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_surface_area

    Mosteller pointed out that his formula holds only if the density is treated as a constant for all humans. Lipscombe, following Mosteller's reasoning, observed that the formulas obtained by Fujimoto, Shuter and Aslani, Takahira, and Lipscombe are suggestive of 8 / 900 × W 4 / 9 × H 2 / 3 {\displaystyle {8/900}\times W^{4/9}\times H^{2/3 ...

  3. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    This formula holds whether or not the cylinder is a right cylinder. [7] This formula may be established by using Cavalieri's principle. A solid elliptic right cylinder with the semi-axes a and b for the base ellipse and height h. In more generality, by the same principle, the volume of any cylinder is the product of the area of a base and the ...

  4. Specific surface area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_surface_area

    Specific surface area ( SSA) is a property of solids defined as the total surface area (SA) of a material per unit mass, [ 1] (with units of m 2 /kg or m 2 /g). Alternatively, it may be defined as SA per solid or bulk volume [ 2][ 3] (units of m 2 /m 3 or m −1 ). It is a physical value that can be used to determine the type and properties of ...

  5. On the Sphere and Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_the_Sphere_and_Cylinder

    On the Sphere and Cylinder ( Greek: Περὶ σφαίρας καὶ κυλίνδρου) is a treatise that was published by Archimedes in two volumes c. 225 BCE. [ 1] It most notably details how to find the surface area of a sphere and the volume of the contained ball and the analogous values for a cylinder, and was the first to do so. [ 2]

  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. Right circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_circular_cylinder

    The area of the base of a cylinder is the area of a circle (in this case we define that the circle has a radius with measure ): B = π r 2 {\displaystyle B=\pi r^{2}} . To calculate the total area of a right circular cylinder, you simply add the lateral area to the area of the two bases:

  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 ...

  9. Contact mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_mechanics

    The authors calculated the number of contact spots n, the total contact area and the total load P in general case. 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
