  2. Ruled surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruled_surface

    Ruled surfaces appear in the Enriques classification of projective complex surfaces, because every algebraic surface of Kodaira dimension is a ruled surface (or a projective plane, if one uses the restrictive definition of ruled surface). Every minimal projective ruled surface other than the projective plane is the projective bundle of a 2 ...

  3. Power Surfacing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Surfacing

    Power Surfacing is designed for industrial design, product design, automotive design, jewelry design, and other applications that require complex freeform surfaces. It aims to simplify the design process and reduce the editing time for organic shapes, compared to traditional surface creation methods. [ 2 ]

  4. Wire-frame model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire-frame_model

    In 3D computer graphics, a wire-frame model (also spelled wireframe model) is a visual representation of a three-dimensional (3D) physical object. It is based on a polygon mesh or a volumetric mesh, created by specifying each edge of the physical object where two mathematically continuous smooth surfaces meet, or by connecting an object's constituent vertices using (straight) lines or curves.

  5. Minimal model program - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimal_model_program

    Castelnuovo's theorem implies that to construct a minimal model for a smooth surface, we simply contract all the −1-curves on the surface, and the resulting variety Y is either a (unique) minimal model with K nef, or a ruled surface (which is the same as a 2-dimensional Fano fiber space, and is either a projective plane or a ruled surface ...

  6. Parametric design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parametric_design

    It allows users to design buildings with key urban parameters such as number of stories and gross floor area, and calculates key urban control parameters on the fly (e.g. floor area ratio or required number of parking lots). Power Surfacing: A SolidWorks application for industrial design, freeform organic surface, and solids modeling. It can ...

  7. SolidWorks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SolidWorks

    SolidWorks (stylized as SOLIDWORKS) is a brand within Dassault Systèmes that develops and markets software for solid modeling computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided engineering (CAE), 3D CAD design, collaboration, analysis, and product data management. [2]

  8. Conoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conoid

    In geometry a conoid (from Greek κωνος 'cone' and -ειδης 'similar') is a ruled surface, whose rulings (lines) fulfill the additional conditions: (1) All rulings are parallel to a plane, the directrix plane. (2) All rulings intersect a fixed line, the axis. The conoid is a right conoid if its axis is perpendicular to its directrix ...

  9. Skew lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skew_lines

    A third type of ruled surface is the hyperbolic paraboloid. Like the hyperboloid of one sheet, the hyperbolic paraboloid has two families of skew lines; in each of the two families the lines are parallel to a common plane although not to each other. Any three skew lines in R 3 lie on exactly one ruled surface of one of these types. [3]
