  2. Mathematics of paper folding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_paper_folding

    Computational origami results either address origami design or origami foldability. [3] In origami design problems, the goal is to design an object that can be folded out of paper given a specific target configuration. In origami foldability problems, the goal is to fold something using the creases of an initial configuration.

  3. Wallpaper group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wallpaper_group

    Example of an Egyptian design with wallpaper group p4m. A wallpaper group (or plane symmetry group or plane crystallographic group) is a mathematical classification of a two-dimensional repetitive pattern, based on the symmetries in the pattern. Such patterns occur frequently in architecture and decorative art, especially in textiles, tiles ...

  4. Canons of page construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canons_of_page_construction

    Recto page from a rare Blackletter Bible (1497). The canons of page construction are historical reconstructions, based on careful measurement of extant books and what is known of the mathematics and engineering methods of the time, of manuscript-framework methods that may have been used in Medieval- or Renaissance-era book design to divide a page into pleasing proportions.

  5. Missing square puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_square_puzzle

    Animation of the missing square puzzle, showing the two arrangements of the pieces and the "missing" square Both "total triangles" are in a perfect 13×5 grid; and both the "component triangles", the blue in a 5×2 grid and the red in an 8×3 grid.

  6. Grid (graphic design) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid_(graphic_design)

    A grid applied within an image (instead of a page) using additional angular lines to guide proportions. In graphic design, a grid is a structure (usually two-dimensional) made up of a series of intersecting straight (vertical, horizontal, and angular) or curved lines (grid lines) used to structure content.

  7. Digital pattern generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_pattern_generator

    The number of digital channels defines the maximum width of any pattern generated - typically, 8-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit pattern generator. A 16-bit pattern generator is able to generate arbitrary digital samples on any number of bits from 1 to 16. The maximum rate defines the minimum time interval between 2 successive patterns. For instance, a ...

  8. Mesh generation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesh_generation

    The parabolic grid generation shows an advantage over the hyperbolic grid generation that, no shocks or discontinuities occur and the grid is relatively smooth. The specifications of initial values and selection of step size to control the grid points is however time-consuming, but these techniques can be effective when familiarity and ...

  9. Nine dots puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine_dots_puzzle

    The "nine dots" puzzle. The puzzle asks to link all nine dots using four straight lines or fewer, without lifting the pen. The nine dots puzzle is a mathematical puzzle whose task is to connect nine squarely arranged points with a pen by four (or fewer) straight lines without lifting the pen or retracing any lines.
