toruses
Hollow circular solids
Toruses is the plural of torus, a doughnut-shaped surface or solid generated by rotating a circle around an axis that doesn't intersect it.
The term appears mainly in mathematics and geometry: The professor drew several toruses on the board.
In architecture and design, a torus is a convex molding with a semicircular cross-section.
The Latinate plural tori is also used.
