In various scientific and technical contexts, this concept is crucial for understanding the properties and behavior of objects that are not perfectly round.
The study of epäsfäärisyys is important in fields like astronomy, where planets, moons, and stars are rarely
In optics, the term can refer to lenses or mirrors that are not spherical, which can be
