  Use of Revolve to calculate an inflatable:      
  Problem: An inflatable in form of lamp

The Revolve module is a resource that allows to revolve any profile through the axis.
 
     
 
 
     
 
In this specific case we will enter the profile through a drawing made in Polylines of AutoCAD.  It is worth to remind that is also possible to enter the points manually in Revolve itself.
 
     
 
 
     
  To load the profile that will be revolutionized, while inside the Revolve, the User must load a routine called "getpline.Isp" which is inside the CALDsoft7 folder. Once the Lisp is loaded, the user must type "getpline" e select the polyline he/she wishes to send to the Revolve. Once the Revolve is opened, just click on the button "Entry of points" and then in the button "Import from CAD" (As seen in the pictures below).To load the profile that will be revolutionized, while inside the Revolve, the User must load a routine called "getpline.Isp" which is inside the CALDsoft7 folder.

With the drawing done, it only remains to make the calculations
 
     
 
 
 

As the Revolve contains 30 sections, there will be 30 identical plans to the one above
