What is a Right Conoid?A right conoid is a type of ruled surface generated by moving a straight line (generatrix) that always intersects a fixed curve (directrix) and is perpendicular to a fixed axis. In a right conoid, the generatrix is typically perpendicular to the z -axis in a 3D coordinate system.Origin and ApplicationsRight conoids are studied in differential geometry and used in architecture and design for their unique geometric properties, allowing efficient force distribution and aesthetic appeal. On my profile, you will find another model of the same type of conoid, but generated through a different method.
