Recently, many unusual morphologies of supernova remnants (SNRs) have been discovered: semicircular shell; center-brightened but without center point source; two-lobed; bipolar; irregular, etc. To understand these varieties of morphologies, we have made theoretical models. One of the main reasons of their unusualness is the multiphase structure of the interstellar medium (ISM) and circumstellar medium (CSM) where they evolved, and the CSM is connected with their progenitor.
