An ogee arch, showing the pair of component blocks on each side that constitute the "double curve" of the ogee, joined at its peak by a capstone. [1]: 218 The midpoint of the two blocks on each side that compose the ogee, the point at which the overall curve changes direction, is the inflection point referred to in the lead.
The edge treatment for solid-surface countertops can be very elaborate. The material itself is usually only about 12 mm (1 ⁄ 2 in) thick so an edge is usually created by stacking up two or three layers of the material. The built-up edge then can be shaped to a rounded edge or an ogee. Fancier edge treatments are more expensive.
An accolade is a pointed arch composed of two ogee curves, also known as sigmoid lines, which mirror one another. [3] [1] It can be formed by a pair of reverse ogee curves over a three-centred arch ending in a vertical finial. [4] [5] The form can also be described as the combination of a convex arch and a concave arch. [6]
[3]: 73 Ovolo and cavetto elements can be combined to form compound moldings; most simply, with the convex ovolo molding below the cavetto, it is known as cyma recta (for its wave-like cross-section), a type of common edge profile commonly referred to as ogee.
A secant ogive of sharpness = / = The ogive shape of the Space Shuttle external tank Ogive on a 9×19mm Parabellum cartridge. An ogive (/ ˈ oʊ dʒ aɪ v / OH-jyve) is the roundly tapered end of a two- or three-dimensional object.
Construction of a four-centred arch. A four-centred arch (Commonwealth spelling) or four-centered arch (American spelling) is a low, wide type of arch with a pointed apex.Its structure is achieved by drafting two arcs which rise steeply from each springing point on a small radius, and then turning into two arches with a wide radius and much lower springing point.
For intermediate sweep angles, a retractable "moustache" or fixed leading-edge root extension (LERX) may be added to encourage and stabilise vortex formation. The ogee or "wineglass" double-curve, seen for example on Concorde, incorporates this forward extension into the profile of the wing.
Particleboard with veneer. Particle board, also known as particleboard or chipboard, is an engineered wood product, belonging to the wood-based panels, manufactured from wood chips and a synthetic, mostly formaldehyde based resin or other suitable binder, which is pressed under a hot press, batch- or continuous- type, and produced.
