Product Description
A "prismatic long body" is typically a long, narrow object with a consistent cross-section, such as a structural member or a sedimentary body, that has a shape similar to a geometric prism. It can also refer to a battery cell shaped like a flat, elongated prism, or in geology, a long and wedge-shaped mass of sediment found in fault troughs. General Characteristics Shape: Resembles a geometrical prism, meaning it has a uniform cross-section along its length. Long and Narrow: Emphasizes its significant length relative to its width or thickness. Consistency: The cross-section (the shape you see when you slice it) remains the same throughout its entire length. Examples Structural Engineering: A prismatic bar is a structural component with a straight axis and a constant cross-section, like a long beam. Geology: A prismatic sedimentary body is a wedge-shaped deposit of sediment formed in fault troughs during orogenic (mountain-building) deformation. Battery Design: A "prismatic cell" refers to a battery cell with a flat, rectangular shape, designed to fit compactly into devices like smartphones and laptops.
