text: If all three radii are equal, the solid body is a sphere; if two radii are equal, the ellipsoid is a spheroid:
text: An ellipsoid of revolution is also called a spheroid.
text: the equator is considered spherical and the ellipsoid is considered a spheroid, with the equatorial radius being defined simply as $ a $ and the polar as $ b $ ——like an ellipse——thus $ a,b,c $ triaxial notation can be confusing).
text: If all three radii are equal, the solid body is a sphere; if two radii are equal, the ellipsoid is a spheroid:
text: The ellipsoid is then a spheroid, and Φ 11 = λ(1), Φ 22 = Φ 33 = λ(2)
text: If two indices are equal, then a plane perpendicular to the axis of the third index cuts the ellipsoid, which is now a spheroid, in a circle.
text: If two of those numbers are equal, the ellipsoid is a spheroid; if all three are equal, it is a sphere.
text: If two axes are equal, say a = b, and different from the third, c, then the ellipsoid is an ellipsoid of revolution, or spheroid (see the figure), the figure formed by revolving an ellipse about one of its axes.
text: …then the ellipsoid is an ellipsoid of revolution, or spheroid (see the figure), the figure formed by revolving an ellipse about one of its axes.
text: An ellipsoid of revolution is a special case where two of these three axes are the same length, as it has circular cross-sections; it is also called a spheroid.
text: The ellipsoid (also called spheroid) provides a relatively simple mathematical figure of the Earth.
