  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. Surface-area-to-volume ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface-area-to-volume_ratio

    Their intercepts with the dashed lines show that when the volume increases 8 (2³) times, the surface area increases 4 (2²) times. The surface-area-to-volume ratio or surface-to-volume ratio (denoted as SA:V, SA/V, or sa/vol) is the ratio between surface area and volume of an object or collection of objects.

  4. Body surface area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_surface_area

    In physiology and medicine, the body surface area (BSA) is the measured or calculated surface area of a human body.For many clinical purposes, BSA is a better indicator of metabolic mass than body weight because it is less affected by abnormal adipose mass.

  5. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    The area of the side is known as the lateral area, L. An open cylinder does not include either top or bottom elements, and therefore has surface area (lateral area) = The surface area of the solid right circular cylinder is made up the sum of all three components: top, bottom and side.

  6. Total body surface area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_body_surface_area

    Total body surface area (TBSA) is an assessment of injury to or disease of the skin, such as burns or psoriasis. In adults, the Wallace rule of nines can be used to determine the total percentage of area burned for each major section of the body.

  7. 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 ...

  8. Morison equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morison_equation

    A is a reference area, e.g. the cross-sectional area of the body perpendicular to the flow direction, V is volume of the body. For instance for a circular cylinder of diameter D in oscillatory flow, the reference area per unit cylinder length is A = D {\displaystyle A=D} and the cylinder volume per unit cylinder length is V = 1 4 π D 2 ...

  9. On the Sphere and Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_the_Sphere_and_Cylinder

    The ratio of the volume of a sphere to the volume of its circumscribed cylinder is 2:3, as was determined by Archimedes. The principal formulae derived in On the Sphere and Cylinder are those mentioned above: the surface area of the sphere, the volume of the contained ball, and surface area and volume of the cylinder.
