    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_3D_modeling_software

    Following is a list of notable software, computer programs, used to develop a mathematical representation of any three dimensional surface of objects, as 3D computer graphics, also called 3D modeling.

  3. STL (file format) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STL_(file_format)

    STL is a file format native to the stereolithography CAD software created by 3D Systems. [3] [4] [5] Chuck Hull, the inventor of stereolithography and 3D Systems’ founder, reports that the file extension is an abbreviation for stereolithography, [6] although it is also referred to as standard triangle language or standard tessellation language.

    To get a true view (length in the projection is equal to length in 3D space) of one of the lines: SU in this example, projection 3 is drawn with hinge line H 2,3 parallel to S 2 U 2. To get an end view of SU, projection 4 is drawn with hinge line H 3,4 perpendicular to S 3 U 3. The perpendicular distance d gives the shortest distance between PR ...

  5. Isometric projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isometric_projection

    Isometric projection is a method for visually representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions in technical and engineering drawings. It is an axonometric projection in which the three coordinate axes appear equally foreshortened and the angle between any two of them is 120 degrees.

  6. Engineering drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing

    An oblique projection is a simple type of graphical projection used for producing pictorial, two-dimensional images of three-dimensional objects: it projects an image by intersecting parallel rays (projectors) from the three-dimensional source object with the drawing surface (projection plan).

  7. Length measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Length_measurement

    Length measurement, distance measurement, or range measurement (ranging) all refer to the many ways in which length, distance, or range can be measured. The most commonly used approaches are the rulers, followed by transit-time methods and the interferometer methods based upon the speed of light .

    One parameter x i (t) would describe a curved 1D path, two parameters x i (t 1, t 2) describes a curved 2D surface, three x i (t 1, t 2, t 3) describes a curved 3D volume of space, and so on. The linear span of a basis set B = { e 1 , e 2 , …, e n } equals the position space R , denoted span( B ) = R .

  9. PLOT3D file format - Wikipedia

    The binary format will be implementation and machine dependent. A multiblock, 3 dimensional Q file begins with a single integer for the number of blocks M on its own line. The next M lines contain three integers for each of the blocks, which give the i, j, and k dimension sizes for each block. The M blocks are read in next.
