  2. Axonometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axonometry

    Axonometry is a graphical procedure belonging to descriptive geometry that generates a planar image of a three-dimensional object. The term "axonometry" means "to measure along axes", and indicates that the dimensions and scaling of the coordinate axes play a crucial role.

  3. Axonometric projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axonometric_projection

    Classification of Axonometric projection and some 3D projections "Axonometry" means "to measure along the axes". In German literature, axonometry is based on Pohlke's theorem, such that the scope of axonometric projection could encompass every type of parallel projection, including not only orthographic projection (and multiview projection), but also oblique projection.

  4. List of chaotic maps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chaotic_maps

    In mathematics, a chaotic map is a map (an evolution function) that exhibits some sort of chaotic behavior. Maps may be parameterized by a discrete-time or a continuous-time parameter. Discrete maps usually take the form of iterated functions. Chaotic maps often occur in the study of dynamical systems.

  5. Parallel projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_projection

    In three-dimensional geometry, a parallel projection (or axonometric projection) is a projection of an object in three-dimensional space onto a fixed plane, known as the projection plane or image plane, where the rays, known as lines of sight or projection lines, are parallel to each other. It is a basic tool in descriptive geometry.

  6. Descriptive geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Descriptive_geometry

    Example of the use of descriptive geometry to find the shortest connector between two skew lines. The red, yellow and green highlights show distances which are the same for projections of point P. Given the X, Y and Z coordinates of P, R, S and U, projections 1 and 2 are drawn to scale on the X-Y and X-Z planes, respectively.

  7. Train track map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Train_track_map

    The process is arranged in such a way that Perron–Frobenius eigenvalues of the maps f n take values in a discrete substet of . This guarantees that the process terminates in a finite number of steps and the last term f N of the sequence is a train track representative of φ.

  8. Oblique projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_projection

    The foreshortening factor (1/2 in this example) is inversely proportional to the tangent of the angle (63.43° in this example) between the projection plane (colored brown) and the projection lines (dotted). Front view of the same. Oblique projection is a type of parallel projection: it projects an image by intersecting parallel rays (projectors)

  9. 2.5D - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2.5D

    Lincity tiles 2D axonometric graphical elements to form a pseudo-3D game environment.. In axonometric projection and oblique projection, two forms of parallel projection, the viewpoint is rotated slightly to reveal other facets of the environment than what are visible in a top-down perspective or side view, thereby producing a three-dimensional effect.
