Here we consider a linoid defined by a segment of length sqrt(6)/2 sliding along two intersecting diagonals of opposite faces of a cube with edge 1. The surface of a linoid is given by the equation 2*x^2/(z - 1/2)^2 + 2*y^2/(z + 1/2)^2 = 1. %C A381380 The surface of a linoid consists of four congruent surfaces. The area of one of them is calculated using integrals and multiplied by 4. %C A381380 The name of the figure "linoid" was introduced by the author in the related article, see link. %H A381380 Nicolay Avilov, <a href="/A381380/a381380.jpg">Construction of a linoid</a> %H A381380 Nicolay Avilov, <a href="https://elementy.ru/problems/2516/Obem_linoida">Volume of a "linoid"</a> (in Russian). %F A381380 Equals sqrt(2)*Integral_{t=0..Pi/2} Integral_{z=0..1/2} sqrt(5 + 24*z^2 + 24*z*cos(2*t) + cos(4*t)) dz dt. %e A381380 2.72705477381204898843515567902... %K A381380 nonn,cons %O A381380 1,1 %A A381380 _Nicolay Avilov_, Feb 22 2025 %E A381380 Terms corrected by _Jinyuan Wang_, Feb 23 2025
