{{Calculus |Integral}}
 
'''Shell integration''' (the '''shell method''' in [[integral calculus]]) is a means of [[calculation|calculating]] the [[volume]] of a [[solid of revolution]], when integrating along an axis ''perpendicular to'' the axis of revolution. While less intuitive than [[disc integration]], it usually produces simpler integrals.
 
It makes use of the so-called "representative [[cylinder (geometry)|cylinder]]". Intuitively speaking, part of the [[graph of a function]] is rotated around an [[axis of rotation|axis]], and is modelled by an infinite number of hollow pipes, all infinitely thin.
 
The idea is that a "representative [[rectangle]]" (used in the most basic forms of [[integral|integration]] &ndash; such as ∫&nbsp;''x''&nbsp;''dx'') can be rotated about the [[solid of revolution|axis of revolution]]; thus generating a hollow cylinder. Integration, as an accumulative process, can then calculate the ''integrated'' volume of a "[[Family (disambiguation)#Mathematics|family]]" of shells (a shell being the outer edge of a hollow cylinder) &ndash; as volume is the [[antiderivative]] of area, if one can calculate the [[lateral surface]] area of a shell, one can then calculate its volume.
 
Shell integration can be considered a special case of evaluating a [[double integral]] in [[polar coordinates]].
 
== Calculation ==
 
Mathematically, this method is represented by:
 
if the rotation is around the [[y-axis]] (vertical axis of revolution) then,
 
:<math>2\pi \int_{a}^{b} xh(x)\,dx</math>
 
 
else if the rotation is around the [[x-axis]] (horizontal axis of revolution) then,
 
:<math>2\pi \int_{a}^{b} yh(y)\,dy</math>
