Scientific paper
In 1970, Kippenhahn and Thomas proposed an averaging technique to study the equilibrium structures of the rotationally and tidally distorted stars. This technique has been subsequently used in the literature by various authors to study the equilibrium structures, evolutionary tracks and oscillations of rotating stars and stars that are rotationally and tidally distorted (that is, stars in binary systems). In this review paper, we have tried to see how this technique has been used by different authors in studying the various problems of rotating stars and stars in binary systems and also, how it has been modified over many years in the face of certain challenges and problems arising in the field of stellar structure and evolution.
