Geometry
A coninder is a special case of a tetraprism where the base is a cone.
Equations
- Assumption: Coninder's base is centered at the origin.
- Variables:
r ⇒ radius of base of coninder
h ⇒ height of coninder
l ⇒ length of coninder
- The hypervolumes of a coninder are given by:
total edge length = Unknown
total surface area = Unknown
surcell volume = Unknown
bulk = πr2hl3-1
- The realmic cross-sections (n) of a coninder are:
[!x,!y] ⇒ Unknown
[!z] ⇒ cylinder of radius (r-rnh-1) and height l
[!w] ⇒ cone of base radius r and height h
Projection
The following is the parallel projection of the coninder:

In perspective projection, the coninder can also appear as two concentric cones. Note that the frustum at the bottom is actually a cylinder:

The following are also perspective projections of the coninder. It seems to have four cells: two cones, a cylinder and something else, which may or may not be another cylinder(?).
