I. OVERVIEW
A) Note To Reader
The instructions for this project included the banning of using cross sections in order
to calculate the volume of any part of the project.
If all cross sections are banned, then it is purely impossible to calculate the volume of
a solid using single-variable calculus. Therefore, I have assumed that the banned
cross sections merely refers to the use of any elementary cross section formulas
that are based on simple cross-sectional shapes with defined area formulas. These
shapes include:
In short, as long the volume of any part of this project is not purely determined
through the use of cross sections, the calculations will be allowed. In addition, any
cross sections used cannot involve the use of any of the elementary shapes listed
above.
I have concluded that under stricter guidelines, it is not possible to use single-variable
calculus to calculate the volume of this project.

B) Cavalieris Principle
In other words, when two solids have equal altitudes and all plane sections parallel to
their bases and equal distances from their bases have equal areas, then the solids
have the same volume.
For example, the following two solids have the same volume.
A) Calculation Method
Because elementary cross-sections arent allowed in this project, I decided to use two
circles to approximate the areas to integrate in the legs. The math is as follows:
(Note: byz is also similar to ayz and abc through AAA)
Similarly, we can calculate the lower region using the same method.
Through Cavalieris principle, when we integrate from the bottom of the leg to the
upper area of the leg, the volumes will be consistent no matter how shifted the radii
are.

A) Method of Calculation
Suicunes body is circular, so I used regular rotations to calculate its volume.
Although the individual slices may be shifted up or down by a little, the volume is the
same by Cavalieris Principle.

VI. HEAD PIECES
Cavalieris Principle accounts for the curvature of the headpieces, especially the
middle one.
The headpiece is divided into three parts: The middle piece, the right piece, and the left
piece.
The following pictures show which function is a(x) and b(x). R(x) is the calculated R
value that we later use to integrate for calculating volume.
(top view, A(x) from center of headpiece) (side view, B(x) from center of headpiece)
B) Middle Headpiece
Here we assume that the middle headpiece is symmetrical about its center.
Therefore, we apply the eye-method (see Section II) and multiply the value by 2.
