  2. Isometric projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isometric_projection

    Another way isometric projection can be visualized is by considering a view within a cubical room starting in an upper corner and looking towards the opposite, lower corner. The x -axis extends diagonally down and right, the y -axis extends diagonally down and left, and the z -axis is straight up.

  3. Constraint (computer-aided design) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constraint_(computer-aided...

    The shaft and pulleys share a common centerline. The constraints of the key are set in relation to the keyseat. A constraint in computer-aided design (CAD) software is a limitation or restriction imposed by a designer or an engineer upon geometric properties [1]: 203 of an entity of a design model (i.e. sketch) that maintains its structure as the model is manipulated.

  4. Wire-frame model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire-frame_model

    In 3D computer graphics, a wire-frame model (also spelled wireframe model) is a visual representation of a three-dimensional (3D) physical object. It is based on a polygon mesh or a volumetric mesh, created by specifying each edge of the physical object where two mathematically continuous smooth surfaces meet, or by connecting an object's constituent vertices using (straight) lines or curves.

  5. Utah teapot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utah_teapot

    Through 3D printing, the Utah Teapot has come full circle from being a computer model based on an actual teapot to being an actual teapot based on the computer model. It is widely available in many renderings in different materials from small plastic knick-knacks to a fully functional ceramic teapot.

  6. Technical drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_drawing

    Exploded-view drawing of a gear pump. An exploded-view drawing is a technical drawing of an object that shows the relationship or order of assembly of the various parts. [13] It shows the components of an object slightly separated by distance or suspended in surrounding space in the case of a three-dimensional exploded diagram.

  7. 3D modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_modeling

    The 3D model can be physically created using 3D printing devices that form 2D layers of the model with three-dimensional material, one layer at a time. Without a 3D model, a 3D print is not possible. 3D modeling software is a class of 3D computer graphics software used to produce 3D models. Individual programs of this class are called modeling ...

  8. UV mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UV_mapping

    UV mapping is the 3D modeling process of projecting a 3D model's surface to a 2D image for texture mapping. The letters "U" and "V" denote the axes of the 2D texture because "X", "Y", and "Z" are already used to denote the axes of the 3D object in model space, while "W" (in addition to XYZ) is used in calculating quaternion rotations, a common ...

  9. Polygonal modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygonal_modeling

    The basic object used in mesh modeling is a vertex, a point in three-dimensional space.Two vertices connected by a straight line become an edge.Three vertices, connected to each other by three edges, define a triangle, which is the simplest polygon in Euclidean space.
