  2. Hidden line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden_line

    Hidden lines are particularly useful when viewing an object from an angle where the visible only lines do not have much information. In a computer drawing application the option may be referred to a wire frame with hidden edges. [6] The hidden edges would be dashed lines. A wire-frame image using hidden-line removal

  3. Descriptive geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Descriptive_geometry

    Descriptive geometry is the branch of geometry which allows the representation of three-dimensional objects in two dimensions by using a specific set of procedures. The resulting techniques are important for engineering, architecture, design and in art. [1]

    The hidden-line algorithm uses n 2 exclusive read, exclusive write (EREW) PRAM processors. The EREW model is the PRAM variant closest to real machines. The hidden-line algorithm does O(n 2 log n) work, which is the upper bound for the best sequential algorithms used in practice. Cook, Dwork and Reischuk gave an Ω(log n) lower bound for finding ...

    Elements of art – shape, form, value, line, color, space and texture Shape – area defined by edges; Form – perceived volume or dimensionality; Value – use of lightness (tint, or white) and darkness (shade, or black) in a piece of art; Line – straight or curved marks that span a distance between two points. For example, see line art.

    Standard engineering drawing line types. A variety of line styles graphically represent physical objects. Types of lines include the following: visible – are continuous lines used to depict edges directly visible from a particular angle. hidden – are short-dashed lines that may be used to represent edges that are not directly visible.

    The curvature will be greatest closest to the pitch and will become an increasingly flatter curve as it moves to the upper rows. As a general rule the rake or curve of the seating bowl will flatten as the first row of seats move away from the side-line for a constant C-value. It is impractical to make different step heights for every single row.

    Vikramaditya Prakash is the son of Indian modernist architect Aditya Prakash.In an interview with the University of Washington, Prakash said that in trying to organize his father's extensive archive he and three volunteers started organizing his father's papers."It turned out there were over 1,000 architectural drawings, about 200 paintings, 600 art drawings, archival photographs, all kinds of ...

    She combined art and architecture in her draftsmanship, and was known to have an "exceptional feel" for linear compositions that integrated architecture with nature. Her interest in Japanese prints gave her several unique compositional techniques of color, depth, emphasis, and line weight that played a crucial role in the development of the ...
