  2. Vector projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_projection

    For more general concepts, see Projection (linear algebra) and Projection (mathematics). The vector projection (also known as the vector component or vector resolution) of a vector a on (or onto) a nonzero vector b is the orthogonal projection of a onto a straight line parallel to b. The projection of a onto b is often written as or a∥b .

  3. Projection formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection_formula

    Projection formula. In algebraic geometry, the projection formula states the following: [1] [2] For a morphism of ringed spaces, an -module and a locally free -module of finite rank, the natural maps of sheaves. are isomorphisms. There is yet another projection formula in the setting of étale cohomology .

  4. Drucker–Prager yield criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drucker–Prager_yield...

    The Drucker – Prager yield criterion has the form. where is the first invariant of the Cauchy stress and is the second invariant of the deviatoric part of the Cauchy stress. The constants are determined from experiments. In terms of the equivalent stress (or von Mises stress) and the hydrostatic (or mean) stress, the Drucker–Prager ...

  5. Stereographic projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereographic_projection

    In mathematics, a stereographic projection is a perspective projection of the sphere, through a specific point on the sphere (the pole or center of projection ), onto a plane (the projection plane) perpendicular to the diameter through the point. It is a smooth, bijective function from the entire sphere except the center of projection to the ...

  6. Multiview orthographic projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiview_orthographic...

    v. t. e. In technical drawing and computer graphics, a multiview projection is a technique of illustration by which a standardized series of orthographic two-dimensional pictures are constructed to represent the form of a three-dimensional object. Up to six pictures of an object are produced (called primary views ), with each projection plane ...

  7. Oblique projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_projection

    Oblique projection is a simple type of technical drawing of graphical projection used for producing two-dimensional (2D) images of three-dimensional (3D) objects. The objects are not in perspective and so do not correspond to any view of an object that can be obtained in practice, but the technique yields somewhat convincing and useful results ...

  8. Spherical coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_coordinate_system

    In mathematics, a spherical coordinate system is a coordinate system for three-dimensional space where the position of a given point in space is specified by three numbers, ( r, θ, φ ): the radial distance of the radial line r connecting the point to the fixed point of origin (which is located on a fixed polar axis, or zenith direction axis ...

  9. Shear mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_mapping

    A shear mapping is the main difference between the upright and slanted (or italic) styles of letters . The same definition is used in three-dimensional geometry, except that the distance is measured from a fixed plane. A three-dimensional shearing transformation preserves the volume of solid figures, but changes areas of plane figures (except ...
