Over 20,000 years before World of Warcraft, the ancient ancestors of modern dragons, known simply as "proto-dragons", made a deal with a race of godlike beings known as the Titans, who empowered them with magic to transform them into the modern dragons. The dragons are divided into five dragonflights, distinct organizations each led by a ...
In mineralogy, prismatic is also type of mineral habit (appearance of a crystal). Prismatic minerals have crystals that show a uniform cross-section . Prismatic crystals typically have 3, 4, 6, 8 or 12 faces which are parallel to a crystallographic axis . [ 2 ]
Prismatic cleavage occurs when there are two cleavage planes in a crystal (but not three). Spodumene is an example where the planes meet at a 90 degree angles. Hornblende is an example where the planes intersect at 56° and 124°. Cubic cleavage occurs when there are three cleavage planes intersecting at 90 degrees.
Smoky quartz with spessartine on top of feldspar matrix, featuring different crystal habits (shapes). In mineralogy, crystal habit is the characteristic external shape of an individual crystal or aggregate of crystals.
Ammolite is also known as aapoak (Kainah for "small, crawling stone"), gem ammonite, calcentine, and korite. The latter is a trade name given to the gemstone by the Alberta-based mining company Korite. Marcel Charbonneau and his business partner Mike Berisoff were the first to create commercial doublets of the gem in 1967. They went on to form ...
A prismatic polytope is a higher-dimensional generalization of a prism. An n-dimensional prismatic polytope is constructed from two (n − 1)-dimensional polytopes, translated into the next dimension. The prismatic n-polytope elements are doubled from the (n − 1)-polytope elements and then creating new elements from the next lower element.
The player controls Bentley Bear who has to collect gems located throughout trimetric-projected rendered castles while avoiding enemies, some of whom are after the gems as well. The game was made by Franz Lanzinger and was the first game he ever developed. He joined Atari in 1983 and was initially tasked with making a game like Asteroids (1979).
The four parameters of classic DH convention are shown in red text, which are θ i, d i, a i, α i. With those four parameters, we can translate the coordinates from O i–1 X i–1 Y i–1 Z i–1 to O i X i Y i Z i. The following four transformation parameters are known as D–H parameters: [4] d: offset along previous z to the common normal
