  2. Solomonic column - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solomonic_column

    Another column can now be observed up close in the St. Peter's Treasury Museum. Other columns from this set of twelve have been lost over the course of time. If these columns really were from one of the Temples in Jerusalem, the spiral pattern may have represented the oak tree which was the first Ark of the Covenant, mentioned in Joshua 24:26. [3]

  3. Superposed order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superposed_order

    Superposed order of the Colosseum. Superposed order (also superimposed) [1] is one where successive storeys of a building have different orders. [2] The most famous ancient example of such an order is the Colosseum at Rome, which had no less than four storeys of superposed orders. [3]

  4. Superimposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superimposition

    2D images [ edit ] In graphics , superimposition is the placement of an image or video on top of an already-existing image or video, usually to add to the overall image effect, but also sometimes to conceal something (such as when a different face is superimposed over the original face in a photograph ).

  5. Frontispiece (architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontispiece_(architecture)

    Classical elements such as superimposed orders, which refers to the architectural system of using different styles of columns for each storey of a building, was introduced and often used for decorative functions in classical architecture. [4] One of the most popular examples of superimposed orders was on the classical façade of the Colosseum. [19]

  6. Superposition principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superposition_principle

    For example, a beam can be modeled as a linear system where the input stimulus is the load on the beam and the output response is the deflection of the beam. The importance of linear systems is that they are easier to analyze mathematically; there is a large body of mathematical techniques, frequency-domain linear transform methods such as ...

  7. Procrustes analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procrustes_analysis

    For instance, with full PS two spheres with different radii will always coincide, because they have exactly the same shape. Conversely, with partial PS they will never coincide. This implies that, by the strict definition of the term shape in geometry, shape analysis should be performed using full PS. A statistical analysis based on partial PS ...

  8. Row and column spaces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Row_and_column_spaces

    The column space of this matrix is the vector space spanned by the column vectors. In linear algebra, the column space (also called the range or image) of a matrix A is the span (set of all possible linear combinations) of its column vectors. The column space of a matrix is the image or range of the corresponding matrix transformation.

  9. 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.
