Hi Everyone,
Imagine a tube of fabric stretched between two hoops, like the one's seen here..
http://www.stretchshapes.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/A1.png
That is, a cylinder made of an elastic material, under tension.
Is there a name for this shape?
Is there a generic equation describing it?
So far, searching the web I've come up with nothing, but I assume I'm using the wrong vocabulary.
Any tips appreciated!
