This type of micelle is known as a normal-phase micelle (or oil-in-water micelle). Inverse micelles have the head groups at the centre with the tails extending out (or water-in-oil micelle). Micelles are approximately spherical in shape. Other shapes, such as ellipsoids, cylinders, and bilayers, are also possible.

The shape of a micelle is directly dependent on the packing parameter of the surfactant. Surfactants with a packing parameter of N S {\displaystyle N_{\text{S}}} ≤ 1/3 appear to have a cone-like shape which will pack together to form spherical micelles when in an aqueous environment (top in figure).
Schematic of a micellar solution showing spherical micelles distributed in water (solvent) and having no long-range positional order. In colloid science, a micellar solution consists of a dispersion of micelles (small particles) in a solvent (most usually water).
In physics and engineering, a free body diagram (FBD; also called a force diagram) [1] is a graphical illustration used to visualize the applied forces, moments, and resulting reactions on a free body in a given condition. It depicts a body or connected bodies with all the applied forces and moments, and reactions, which act on the body(ies).
Eysturoy Tunnel, which opened in 2020, took four years to complete. It dramatically cut the travel time between the Faroe Islands capital on the island of Streymoy and neighboring Eysturoy island.
The amphiphiles' hydrocarbon tails are contained on the inside of the micelle and hence the polar-apolar interface of the aggregates has a positive mean curvature, by definition (it curves away from the polar phase). The first pure surfactant system found to exhibit three different type I (oil-in-water) micellar cubic phases was observed in the ...
