Having indicated what projections are and how obtained, it will he well, before giving their grand divisions and sub-divisions, to state the nature and extent of the field in which they may be employed. The mathematical properties of geometrical figures, as also the propositions and problems involving them, are divided into two classes, metrical and descriptive. In the first class the idea of quantity necessarily enters, either directly - as in measurement, or indirectly - as in ratio. In the second or descriptive class, however, we find involved only those properties dependent upon relative position. 6. Descriptive Geometry is that branch of mathematics in which figures are represented and their descriptive properties investigated and demonstrated by means of projection. Divisions Of Projections. 7. All projections may be divided into two general classes. Central and Parallel. If the centre of projection be at a finite distance, as in Figs. 2 and 3, the projection obtained is called a central projection; but if we suppose it to be at infinity, as in Fig. 4, projectors from it will then evidently be parallel, and the resulting figure is called a parallel projection of the original figure. Parallel projection is thus seen to be merely a special case of central projection, yet each has been independently developed to a high degree and has an extensive literature. 8. The terms Conical and Cylindrical are employed by many writers synonymously with central and parallel respectively. Central projections are also occasionally called Radial or Polar. Remark.-A straight line is said to generate a conical surface (see Fig. 5) when it constantly passes through a fixed point (the vertex), and is guided in its motion by a given fixed curve (the directrix). The moving straight line is a generatrix of the surface, and its various positions are called elements of the surface. If the vertex of a conical surface be removed to infinity the elements will become parallel and we shall have a cylindrical, surface, which may be also defined as the surface (see Fig. 6) generated by a straight line that is guided in its motion by a given fixed curve, and is, in any position, parallel to a given fixed straight line. The origin of the terms conical and cylindrical as applied to projection is obvious. We have now to mention the more important sub-divisions of projections, with the sciences based upon them. The names depend in certain cases upon the nature of the centre of projection while in others they are due to some particular application. Under Central (or Conical) projection we have: - 9. Projective Geometry (Geometry of Position). While in its most general sense this science includes all central projections (and therefore those of Articles. 10-13) yet in its ordinary acceptation it may be defined as that branch of mathematics in which - with the centre of projection considered as a mathematical point at a finite distance from the line or plane of projection the descriptive properties of geometrical figures are investigated and established.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Theoretical and Practical Graphics: An Educational Course on the Theory and Practical Applications of Descriptive Geometry and Mechanical Drawing; Prepared for Students in General Science, Engineering or Architecture Chapter I. A broad and comprehensive survey of the fields the student is about to enter seems the natural preliminary to intelligent work therein; the first chapter is, therefore, devoted to rigid definition and differentiation of the graphical sciences, and the arts in which they are applied. Some remarks on the nomenclature of geometries are also included, as further extending the draughtsman's usually too limited horizon. This would naturally be followed by the ninth and succeeding chapters in a course arranged more for educational than commercial purposes. Chapter II. As free-hand sketches are rightly made the basis of much of the practical draught ing of the embryo engineer or architect, and as the graduate has frequent occasion, either as inspector or designer, to make clear and intelligible drawings without instruments, full instructions are given in this section as to what may be called technical, as distinguished from artistic, free hand work, covering the following points: Sketching either in pictorial or orthographic view, dimensioning, free-hand lettering, conventional representation of materials, and note-taking on bridges and other trussed work, pins, bolts, screws, nuts and gearing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Theory and Practice in Designing With from the most elementary examples to those which are more involved. The arrangement is progressive, so that the book may be used as a text book by those beginning to study the subject, and they will be taken by easy steps right through. Only the simplest problems in mathematics are employed and the method of using all formula is clearly set out; graphic methods are employed whenever possible. The information when once fully explained is not repeated, so that the more complicated structures can be dealt with concisely, thus enabling the book to form a handy reference to those engineers and architects who are engaged in the practical design of structures. It is quite distinct from other books on designing by the same author and should. Be twitch 2as.' samplementary to them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer graphics is now used in various fields; for industrial, educational, medical and entertainment purposes. The aim of computer graphics is to visualize real objects and imaginary or other abstract items. In order to visualize various things, many technologies are necessary and they are mainly divided into two types in computer graphics: modeling and rendering technologies. This book covers the most advanced technologies for both types. It also includes some visualization techniques and applications for motion blur, virtual agents and historical textiles. This book provides useful insights for researchers in computer graphics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection offers an expansive, multiplatform exploration of the rapidly-expanding area of motion design and motion graphics, taking into account both theoretical questions and creative professional practice. Spanning interaction design, product interfaces, kinetic data visualizations, typography, TV and film title design, brand building, narrative storytelling, history, exhibits and environments, editors R. Brian Stone and Leah Wahlin offer an interdisciplinary range of academic essays and professional interviews that together form a dialogue between motion design theory and professional practice. Written for both those critically engaged with motion design as well as those working or aspiring to work professionally in the field, the book features a range of international contributors and interviews with some of the best-known designers in the field, including Kyle Cooper, Karin Fong, and Daniel Alenquer. The Theory and Practice of Motion Design seeks to illuminate the diverse, interdisciplinary field of motion design by offering a structured examination of how motion design has evolved, what forces define our current understanding and implementation of motion design, and how we can plan for and imagine the future of motion design as it unfolds. An accompanying online resource site, www.motionresource.com, contains visual representations of the examples described in the text.
