Superspheroids: a new family of radome shapes

- Summary

Abstract

We use the arc described by the two-dimensional superquadric equation (taking its exponent /spl nu/ to be any positive real number) in the first quadrant only and revolve it about its major axis to obtain a body of revolution family of geometric shapes called superspheroids. For certain values of length and radius and assuming that 1 >
