Ellipse is a fundamental component of a conic section and shares many characteristics with a circle. An ellipse is oval in shape as opposed to a circle. An ellipse is a shape with an eccentricity less than one that symbolises a group of points whose distances from its two foci are added up to a fixed value. Everyday examples of the ellipse include the shape of an egg as well as the race track in a sports field.
The location of points in a plane whose sum of separations from two fixed points is a constant value is known as an ellipse. The ellipse's two fixed points are referred to as its foci. Simply put, an arc around the two focal points is known as an ellipse. The length and width of the ellipse are controlled by two of its axes.
The Ellipse command on the AutoCAD display allows you to construct ellipses in general. By putting the start and end points on two different axes, we could make an ellipse. Depending on the specification, the first and second axes of the ellipse might be classified as either minor or major axes.
Below are the main features of an ellipse:
The ellipse is a universal shape and finds its application in various industries. In architecture, ellipses are used to design buildings and rooms that need resonance. In woodworking, ellipses are often used to design and build tables and shelf components. In astronomy, even the Kepler satellite and planet orbits use ellipses to describe their motion.

A stiffness modifier is a modification factor that is generally used in the properties of cross section such as moment of inertia, torsion etc., aiding in reducing the stiffness in concrete sections to model cracked behaviour of concrete. The stiffness modifier is applied only on concrete structures as it cracks on loading.

A topographic map, or toposheet, depicts a three-dimensional terrain area in two dimensions. Since topographic maps display the landscape's horizontal and vertical location, they set themselves apart from other types of maps. It uses a combination of colour, symbols, labels, contour lines, and other graphical elements for visual representation.
