Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Curves and Surfaces in Geometric Modeling: Theory and Algorithms offers a theoretically unifying understanding of polynomial curves and surfaces as well as an effective approach to implementation that you can apply to your own work as a graduate student, scientist, or practitioner." "The focus here is on blossoming - the process of converting a polynomial to its polar form - as a natural, purely geometric explanation of the behavior of curves and surfaces. This insight is important for more than just its theoretical elegance - the author demonstrates the value of blossoming as a practical algorithmic tool for generating and manipulating curves and surfaces that meet many different criteria. You'll learn to use this and other related techniques drawn from affine geometry for computing and adjusting control points, deriving the continuity conditions for splines, creating subdivision surfaces, and more." "It will be an essential acquisition for readers in many different areas, including computer graphics and animation, robotics, virtual reality, geometric modeling and design, medical imaging, computer vision, and motion planning."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book seeks to explore the history of descriptive geometry in relation to its circulation in the 19th century, which had been favoured by the transfers of the model of the École Polytechnique to other countries. The book also covers the diffusion of its teaching from higher instruction to technical and secondary teaching. In relation to that, there is analysis of the role of the institution – similar but definitely not identical in the different countries – in the field under consideration. The book contains chapters focused on different countries, areas, and institutions, written by specialists of the history of the field. Insights on descriptive geometry are provided in the context of the mathematical aspect, the aspect of teaching in particular to non-mathematicians, and the institutions themselves.

Download or read book Engineering Graphics written by Aleksandr Yurievich Brailov and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This professional treatise on engineering graphics emphasizes engineering geometry as the theoretical foundation for communication of design ideas with real world structures and products. It considers each theoretical notion of engineering geometry as a complex solution of direct- and inverse-problems of descriptive geometry and each solution of basic engineering problems presented is accompanied by construction of biunique two- and three-dimension models of geometrical images. The book explains the universal structure of formal algorithms of the solutions of positional, metric, and axonometric problems, as well as the solutions of problems of construction in developing a curvilinear surface. The book further characterizes and explains the added laws of projective connections to facilitate construction of geometrical images in any of eight octants. Laws of projective connections allow constructing the complex drawing of a geometrical image in the American system of measurement and the European system of measurement without errors and mistakes. The arrangement of projections of a geometrical image on the complex drawing corresponds to an arrangement of views of a product in the projective drawing for the European system of measurement. The volume is ideal for engineers working on a range of design projects as well as for students of civil, structural, and industrial engineering and engineering design.

Download or read book Descriptive Geometry for Students in Engineering Science and Architecture written by Henry F. Armstrong and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Descriptive Geometry for Students in Engineering Science and Architecture: A Carefully Graded Course of Instruction Section 1. In Descriptive Geometry the object is chiefly to prepare drawings as follows: - (а) Those which will display or describe by different views any object or arrangement oi lines or figures discussed; (b) Those which will, by various analytical and constructive methods and operations, discover or disclose facts as to shapes, inclinations, appearances, sizes, etc.; and (c) Those which will represent planes and how they may be disposed to one another. The views mentioned above in (a) are projections, and are made on what arc called planes of projection. The same projection planes, two in number, are also made use of in the discussion of planes referred to in (c), lines being drawn over the planes of projection and made to represent other planes in various attitudes with respect to the projection planes. The planes of projection are the Horizontal Plane and the Vertical Plane. These arc considered as being fixed, and the lines, planes, figures or objects are considered as having a relation to them - near or otherwise as to distance, inclined or otherwise as to altitude. The drawings made either represent points, lines, figures or objects by views thrown perpendicularly on to these planes of projection (the H.P. and the V.P. as they are commonly called), or they indicate the intersection of the planes of projection by lines and planes.

This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Descriptive Geometry and the Perspective of the Straight Line: With a Brief Introduction to That of Curves Accompanied by Many Exercises The idea which has governed the outlining of the work indicated in the following pages has been that the value of the study of Descriptive Geometry lies, for the ordinary student, chiefly in the discipline which his imagination receives through his familiarizing himself with the fundamental operations of that portion of applied Geometry. My aim has therefore been to strike the happy mean between a treatment of the subject so abstract and difficult as to call forth no clear ideas in the mind of the student, and one so diffuse and easy as to call forth no real mental exertion on his part. The method herein adopted is one which has been hammered out in the actual work of the class-room. Attention is particularly called to the use made of perspectives of figures embodying the fundamental relations as shown in Plate I. In some respects, the use of perspective representations will be found to be equally efficient with that of models; in others the superiority of models is, of course, undeniable.

Download or read book Geometric Reasoning written by John Woodwark and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1989 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When computers are asked to deal with information about the shape of objects, the tasks required can be divided into those that can be attacked by algorithms and those that cannot. In computer graphics and image-processing, for example, despite great progress, it is really only the algorithmic processes that have been computerized. There are many more complex, less easily defined uses for shape information that elude solution. Geometric Reasoning deals with these activities. Its scope is broad, ranging beyond computational geometry or von Neumann architectures. Applications include shape modelling, computer graphics, image processing and computer vision.
