  2. Origamic architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origamic_architecture

    Origamic architecture is a form of kirigami that involves the three-dimensional reproduction of architecture and monuments, on various scales, using cut-out and folded paper, usually thin paperboard. Visually, these creations are comparable to intricate 'pop-ups', indeed, some works are deliberately engineered to possess 'pop-up'-like properties.

  3. Foliation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foliation

    2-dimensional section of Reeb foliation 3-dimensional model of Reeb foliation. In mathematics (differential geometry), a foliation is an equivalence relation on an n-manifold, the equivalence classes being connected, injectively immersed submanifolds, all of the same dimension p, modeled on the decomposition of the real coordinate space R n into the cosets x + R p of the standardly embedded ...

    [[Category:Architecture templates]] to the <includeonly> section at the bottom of that page. Otherwise, add <noinclude>[[Category:Architecture templates]]</noinclude> to the end of the template code, making sure it starts on the same line as the code's last character.

  5. Multifoil arch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multifoil_arch

    Multifoil arch in the Aljafería, Zaragoza, Spain. A multifoil arch (or polyfoil arch), also known as a cusped arch, [1] [2] polylobed arch, [3] [4] or scalloped arch, [5] is an arch characterized by multiple circular arcs or leaf shapes (called foils, lobes, or cusps) that are cut into its interior profile or intrados.

  6. Section restoration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_restoration

    This technique assumed a stratigraphic template with unit thicknesses either constant or smoothly varying across the section. Line lengths were measured on the present-day deformed section and transferred to the template, to rebuild the section as it was before deformation started.

  7. Cleavage (geology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleavage_(geology)

    If the heat is too intense, foliation will be weakened due to the nucleation and growth of new randomly oriented crystals and the rock will become a hornfels. [1] If minimal heat is applied to a rock with a preexisting foliation and without a change in mineral assemblage, the cleavage will be strengthened by growth of micas parallel to foliation.

  8. Tracery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracery

    The technical aspects of the windows at Reims clearly fascinated Villard de Honnecourt, who visited the construction site, probably in the 1220s, and made a detailed sketch of the various templates, using a key to show how they fitted into the different parts of the window (the templates are in the lower half of folio 32 recto; the symbols ...

  9. Lineation (geology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lineation_(geology)

    Intersection lineations are measured in relation to the two structures which intersect to form them. For instance, according to the measurement conventions of structural geology, original bedding, S 0 intersected by a fold's axial plane foliation, forms an intersection lineation L 0-1, with an azimuth and
