hyperboloid structure : ウィキペディア英語版 | hyperboloid structure
Hyperboloid structures are architectural structures designed using a hyperboloid in one sheet. Often these are tall structures such as towers where the hyperboloid geometry's structural strength is used to support an object high off the ground, but hyperboloid geometry is also often used for decorative effect as well as structural economy. The first hyperboloid structures were built by Russian engineer Vladimir Shukhov (1853–1939).〔 〕 The world's first hyperboloid tower is located in Polibino, Dankovsky District, Lipetsk Oblast, Russia. ==Properties== Hyperbolic structures have a negative Gaussian curvature, meaning they curve inward rather than outward or being straight. As doubly ruled surfaces, they can be made with a lattice of straight beams, hence are easier to build than curved surfaces that do not have a ruling and must instead be built with curved beams. Hyperboloid structures are superior in stability towards outside forces compared to "straight" buildings, but have shapes often creating large amounts of unusable volume (low space efficiency) and therefore are more commonly used in purpose-driven structures, such as water towers (to support a large mass), cooling towers, and aesthetic features. With cooling towers, a hyperbolic structure is preferred. At the bottom, the widening of the tower provides a large area for installation of fill to promote thin film evaporative cooling of the circulated water. As the water first evaporates and rises, the narrowing effect helps accelerate the laminar flow, and then as it widens out, contact between the heated air and atmospheric air supports turbulent mixing.
