✦ Synopsis


We have developed an analytic expression for the volume of intersection of any cylinder with any sphere in the usual three-dimensional space. To our knowledge, it is the first time that an exact expression, valid in all cases, is presented for this volume. Here we derive this expression, show how it can be implemented numerically, and give examples of its usefulness for physics, as for example the fast evaluation of the number of participants in relativistic collisions of nuclei.

In this paper, the torsion problem of a composite cylinder with cracks and inclusions is investigated. Firstly, a linear inclusion model is proposed and the fundamental solution of this model is obtained. With the help of this solution together with Muskhelishvili's single-layer potential function a
