axisymmetric shells

Axisymmetric shells are curved structures whose shape is symmetric around a central axis, resembling objects like domes, cylinders, or cones. Their design allows the structure to evenly distribute forces, making them strong and efficient while using less material. This symmetry simplifies analysis and construction, as forces and stresses are distributed uniformly around the axis. They are commonly used in architecture, aerospace, and engineering for tufts that need to withstand pressure, forces, or environmental loads while maintaining lightweight and durable structures.
