The Bisected Axis of Semi Ellipsoid is the half of the first axis which is bisected when Semi Ellipsoid is formed from the complete Ellipsoid. It represents one of the three principal dimensions that define the geometry of a semi-ellipsoid.
The calculator uses the mathematical formula:
Where:
Explanation: This formula calculates the bisected axis length when the volume and the other two semi-axes of the semi-ellipsoid are known.
Details: Calculating the bisected axis is essential for geometric modeling, architectural design, and engineering applications where semi-ellipsoidal shapes are involved. It helps in determining the complete dimensional specifications of the shape.
Tips: Enter the volume in cubic meters, and the second and third semi-axes in meters. All values must be positive numbers greater than zero for accurate calculation.
Q1: What is a semi-ellipsoid?
A: A semi-ellipsoid is half of a complete ellipsoid, created by cutting the ellipsoid through one of its principal planes.
Q2: How is this different from a complete ellipsoid?
A: A semi-ellipsoid has half the volume of a complete ellipsoid with the same axes lengths, and one axis is bisected at the cutting plane.
Q3: What are typical applications of semi-ellipsoids?
A: Semi-ellipsoidal shapes are commonly used in architecture (domes), engineering (tank designs), and various geometric modeling applications.
Q4: Are there limitations to this formula?
A: This formula assumes a perfect semi-ellipsoidal shape and may not be accurate for irregular or deformed geometries.
Q5: Can this calculator be used for imperial units?
A: The calculator works with any consistent unit system, but all inputs must use the same units (e.g., all in meters or all in feet).
