  2. UV mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UV_mapping

    UV mapping is the 3D modeling process of projecting a 3D model's surface to a 2D image for texture mapping. The letters "U" and "V" denote the axes of the 2D texture because "X", "Y", and "Z" are already used to denote the axes of the 3D object in model space, while "W" (in addition to XYZ) is used in calculating quaternion rotations, a common ...

  3. 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.

    The plots on top are actually annotations that contain images generated earlier. Image annotations can be used to include material that enhances a visualization such as auxiliary plots, images of experimental data, project logos, etc. Scatter plot: VisIt's Scatter plot allows visualizing multivariate data of up to four dimensions. The Scatter ...

  5. 3D projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_projection

    3D projections use the primary qualities of an object's basic shape to create a map of points, that are then connected to one another to create a visual element. The result is a graphic that contains conceptual properties to interpret the figure or image as not actually flat (2D), but rather, as a solid object (3D) being viewed on a 2D display.

  6. Three-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-dimensional_space

    In geometry, a three-dimensional space (3D space, 3-space or, rarely, tri-dimensional space) is a mathematical space in which three values (coordinates) are required to determine the position of a point. Most commonly, it is the three-dimensional Euclidean space, that is, the Euclidean space of dimension three, which models physical space.

  7. PLOT3D file format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plot3d_file_format

    In computational fluid dynamics, the PLOT3D file format is a standard file format used for storing grid and results data. PLOT3D was created by NASA Ames Research Center in 1982 by Pieter Buning [1] and remains an often used file format.

  8. Schematic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schematic

    A schematic, or schematic diagram, is a designed representation of the elements of a system using abstract, graphic symbols rather than realistic pictures. A schematic usually omits all details that are not relevant to the key information the schematic is intended to convey, and may include oversimplified elements in order to make this essential meaning easier to grasp, as well as additional ...
