I didn't either. Had to look it up. It's a capsule or in geometric terms a Sphereocylinder.

Yeah, when it is revolved 360, it turns into a cylinder

It's an oblong shape mate. Some call it "race course" but in essence, an elongated circle with straight edges like what you have.

In a thesis, do you think I should refer to it as an oblong shape or capsule?
It's just a cut out from a design software. When I revolve this, it forms a 3-D capsule.

What is the context? Can't you just say it's a top down 2D plane view of the capsule?

Yeah I think this works. In engineering, we call it the Plan View of the capsule. 🤔.

Yeah I meant plan view, damn autocorrect haha. Use that instead, plus it adds more to your word count rather than just "oblong" 😁

😁 You can name it as an Ellipsoid shape of a missile with an area of 111,400 (no units). LOL

Hive a nice day!
