Abstract
Included also is an exact three-dimensional solution of a rotating spheroid whose field equations are those of plane stress. This yields the exact solution for rotating disks cut from the spheroid by any two planes perpendicular to the axis of rotation.; The technically important aspects of some numerical examples are discussed in detail.; The ensuing stress equations are obtained in terms of nine coefficients of superposition. These coefficients have been evaluated for various shape ratios and are presented in tabular form.; This paper contains an exact solution for the stress distribution in a solid triaxial ellipsoid, rotating about the z axis with constant angular velocity. The surface of the body is free from boundary stresses. The solution covers as limiting cases the known results for rotationally symmetric solids and the elliptic cylinder.;
