  2. Gmsh - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gmsh

    Gmsh is a finite-element mesh generator developed by Christophe Geuzaine and Jean-François Remacle. Released under the GNU General Public License, Gmsh is free software. Gmsh contains 4 modules: for geometry description, meshing, solving and post-processing. Gmsh supports parametric input and has advanced visualization mechanisms.

  3. Small-angle approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small-angle_approximation

    The sine and tangent small-angle approximations are used in relation to the double-slit experiment or a diffraction grating to develop simplified equations like the following, where y is the distance of a fringe from the center of maximum light intensity, m is the order of the fringe, D is the distance between the slits and projection screen ...

  4. Polygon mesh - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polygon_mesh

    Example of a low poly triangle mesh representing a dolphin. In 3D computer graphics and solid modeling, a polygon mesh is a collection of vertices, edge s and face s that defines the shape of a polyhedral object's surface. It simplifies rendering, as in a wire-frame model.

  5. Normal mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_mapping

    A texture map (left). The corresponding normal map in tangent space (center). The normal map applied to a sphere in object space (right). Normal map reuse is made possible by encoding maps in tangent space. The tangent space is a vector space, which is tangent to the model's surface. The coordinate system varies smoothly (based on the ...

  6. 3D modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_modeling

    3D models may be created automatically or manually. The manual modeling process of preparing geometric data for 3D computer graphics is similar to plastic arts such as sculpting. 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 ...

  7. Tangential and normal components - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangential_and_normal...

    Illustration of tangential and normal components of a vector to a surface. In mathematics, given a vector at a point on a curve, that vector can be decomposed uniquely as a sum of two vectors, one tangent to the curve, called the tangential component of the vector, and another one perpendicular to the curve, called the normal component of the vector.

  9. Static mesh - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_mesh

    Static meshes are polygon meshes which constitute a major part of map architecture in many game engines, including Unreal Engine, Source, and Unity.The word "static" refers only to the fact that static meshes can't be vertex animated, as they can be moved, scaled, or reskinned in real-time.
