In computer graphics, free-form deformation (FFD) is a geometric technique used to model simple deformations of rigid objects. It is based on the idea of enclosing an object within a cube or another hull object, and transforming the object within the hull as the hull is deformed.
Kelly was a rider for Sims Snowboards, [3] founded by Tom Sims, from 1983 until 1987. He spent the remainder of his life riding for Burton Snowboards , owned by Jake Burton Carpenter . Kelly starred in a Wrigleys Gum commercial in 1988/1989 where he was featured doing a 540.
Mathematical visualization is used throughout mathematics, particularly in the fields of geometry and analysis. Notable examples include plane curves , space curves , polyhedra , ordinary differential equations , partial differential equations (particularly numerical solutions, as in fluid dynamics or minimal surfaces such as soap films ...
Tycho 3D Brain Teaser Puzzle. The Tycho puzzle is hefty and beautiful, with eight interlocking stainless steel and brass components. You spin it on a countertop to break it apart, then reassemble ...
It is the latest entry in the Stoked Rider snowboard game series. In 2009 an updated version, Stoked: Big Air Edition, which was also released for Xbox 360, and a Microsoft Windows version was released only for the PAL region in 2011. It is the first game in the series to feature multiple mountains and real life sponsors.
Interactive geometry software (IGS) or dynamic geometry environments (DGEs) are computer programs which allow one to create and then manipulate geometric constructions, primarily in plane geometry. In most IGS, one starts construction by putting a few points and using them to define new objects such as lines , circles or other points.
Geometric constraint solving is constraint satisfaction in a computational geometry setting, which has primary applications in computer aided design. [1] A problem to be solved consists of a given set of geometric elements and a description of geometric constraints between the elements, which could be non-parametric (tangency, horizontality, coaxiality, etc) or parametric (like distance, angle ...
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.
