  2. Keystone effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keystone_effect

    The keystone effect is the apparent distortion of an image caused by projecting it onto an angled surface. It is the distortion of the image dimensions, such as making a square look like a trapezoid, the shape of an architectural keystone, hence the name of the feature.

  3. Skew arch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skew_arch

    Colorado Street Bridge, an example of a false skew arch. The strength of a regular arch (also known as a "square" or "right" arch) comes from the fact that the mass of the structure and its superincumbent load cause lines of force that are carried by the stones into the ground and the abutments without producing any tendency for the stones to slide with respect to one another.

  4. Oblique projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_projection

    The foreshortening factor (1/2 in this example) is inversely proportional to the tangent of the angle (63.43° in this example) between the projection plane (colored brown) and the projection lines (dotted). Front view of the same. Oblique projection is a type of parallel projection: it projects an image by intersecting parallel rays (projectors)

  5. Perspective distortion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_distortion

    For example, if standing at a distance so that a normal lens captures someone's face, a shot with a wide-angle lens or telephoto lens from the same distance will have exactly the same linear perspective geometry on the face, though the wide-angle lens may fit the entire body into the shot, while the telephoto lens captures only the nose.

  6. Skew (fax) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skew_(fax)

    In fax systems, skew is the angular deviation of the received frame from rectangularity caused by asynchronism between the scanner and the recorder. This is the same as the angle between the scanning line, or recording line, and the perpendicular to the paper path. [1] Skew is expressed numerically as the tangent [broken anchor] of the ...

  7. Southdown Road Skew Bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southdown_Road_Skew_Bridge

    Southdown Road Skew Bridge looking along the barrel. Note the substantial retaining wall to the left of the arch. The easiest way to visualise Boucher's concept for the ribbed skew arch is to consider a regular arch bridge that carries the railway at right angles across the road and then to slice it vertically at regular intervals along the axis of its barrel, the planes all being parallel ...

  8. Shear mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_mapping

    Therefore, the shear factor m is the cotangent of the shear angle between the former verticals and the x-axis. (In the example on the right the square is tilted by 30°, so the shear angle is 60°.) (In the example on the right the square is tilted by 30°, so the shear angle is 60°.)
