Four planes from the axial pencil on P1 P2. A pencil of planes, is the set of planes through a given straight line in three-space, called the axis of the pencil. The pencil is sometimes referred to as a axial-pencil [7] or fan of planes or a sheaf of planes. [8] For example, the meridians of the globe are defined by the pencil of planes on the ...
An engineering drawing is a type of technical drawing that is used to convey information about an object. A common use is to specify the geometry necessary for the construction of a component and is called a detail drawing.
Alternatively, a line can be described as the intersection of two planes. Let L be a line contained in distinct planes a and b with homogeneous coefficients (a 0 : a 1 : a 2 : a 3) and (b 0 : b 1 : b 2 : b 3), respectively. (The first plane equation is =, for example.)
A cutaway drawing is a technical illustration, in which part of the surface of a three-dimensional model is removed in order to show some of the model's interior in relation to its exterior. The purpose of a cutaway drawing is to "allow the viewer to have a look into an otherwise solid opaque object.
Traditional and typical styli used for technical drawing are pencils and technical pens. Video of a 1930s dotted-line drawing pen. Pencils in use are usually mechanical pencils with a standard lead thickness. The usual line widths are 0.35 mm, 0.5 mm, 0.7 mm and 1.0 mm. Hardness varies usually from HB to 2H.
These six planes of projection intersect each other, forming a box around the object, the most uniform construction of which is a cube; traditionally, these six views are presented together by first projecting the 3D object onto the 2D faces of a cube, and then "unfolding" the faces of the cube such that all of them are contained within the ...
In an affine or Euclidean space of higher dimension, the points at infinity are the points which are added to the space to get the projective completion. [citation needed] The set of the points at infinity is called, depending on the dimension of the space, the line at infinity, the plane at infinity or the hyperplane at infinity, in all cases a projective space of one less dimension.
