  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. 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 ...

    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. Nose cone design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nose_cone_design

    A bi-conic nose cone shape is simply a cone with length L 1 stacked on top of a frustum of a cone (commonly known as a conical transition section shape) with length L 2, where the base of the upper cone is equal in radius R 1 to the top radius of the smaller frustum with base radius R 2. = +

  7. 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]

  8. Spherical cap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_cap

    The volume of a spherical cap with a curved base can be calculated by considering two spheres with radii and , separated by some distance , and for which their surfaces intersect at =. That is, the curvature of the base comes from sphere 2.

    Some commonly used solutions are listed below. The theory used to compute these solutions is discussed later in the article. Solutions for multitude of other technically relevant shapes, e.g. the truncated cone, the worn sphere, rough profiles, hollow cylinders, etc. can be found in [16]
