The state of stress around cavities of the revolving ellipsoidal shape (prolate or oblate) in the extreme cases of their degeneration is a very complex problem. Namely, the shape of cavities is defined by an appropriate curvilinear coordinate system, which contains hyperbolic and trigonometric functions. In this paper, the treatment of revolving el...
