  2. Ellipsoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsoid

    Simplifying above formula using properties of R G, [5] this can be also be expressed in terms of the volume of the ellipsoid V: = (,,). Unlike the expression with F(φ, k) and E(φ, k), the equations in terms of R G do not depend on the choice of an order on a, b, and c.

    This is a torispherical head also named Semi ellipsoidal head (According to DIN 28013). The radius of the dish is 80% of the diameter of the cylinder ( r 1 = 0.8 × D o {\displaystyle r_{1}=0.8\times Do} ).

  6. Spheroid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spheroid

    If the ellipse is rotated about its major axis, the result is a prolate spheroid, elongated like a rugby ball. The American football is similar but has a pointier end than a spheroid could. If the ellipse is rotated about its minor axis, the result is an oblate spheroid, flattened like a lentil or a plain M&M.

  7. Nose cone design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nose_cone_design

    General parameters used for constructing nose cone profiles. Given the problem of the aerodynamic design of the nose cone section of any vehicle or body meant to travel through a compressible fluid medium (such as a rocket or aircraft, missile, shell or bullet), an important problem is the determination of the nose cone geometrical shape for optimum performance.

  8. Flattening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flattening

    Flattening is a measure of the compression of a circle or sphere along a diameter to form an ellipse or an ellipsoid of revolution respectively. Other terms used are ellipticity , or oblateness . The usual notation for flattening is f {\displaystyle f} and its definition in terms of the semi-axes a {\displaystyle a} and b {\displaystyle b} of ...

    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.
