Shell approximation of solid of revolution II

Shell approximation of solid of revolution II Free 3D print model

Description

The model pictured on the left is the solid obtained by revolving the region between the graph of y=(x-1)(x-3)^2 and the x-axis on [1,3] around the y-axis. The model in the back is an approximation of that solid using 8 shells, and the model on the right is an approximation with 16 shells.

This particular volume is the same one computed with a definite integral at https://www.khanacademy.org/math/integral-calculus/solid_revolution_topic/shell-method/v/shell-method-for-rotating-around-vertical-line, in case you feel like doing some calculus. For more information about the math behind approximating volumes with shells, see the link below. MakerHome, Day 238: http://makerhome.blogspot.com/2014/04/day-238-shellmaker-2.html
