  2. Scale ruler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_ruler

    A triangular architect's scale, made of brass. An architect's scale is a specialized ruler designed to facilitate the drafting and measuring of architectural drawings, such as floor plans and Multi-view orthographic projections. Because the scale of such drawings is often smaller than life-size, an architect's scale features multiple units of ...

  3. Scale (ratio) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_(ratio)

    Graphical scale bar in combination with a scale expressed as a ratio and a conversion help. The scale ratio of a model represents the proportional ratio of a linear dimension of the model to the same feature of the original. Examples include a 3-dimensional scale model of a building or the scale drawings of the elevations or plans of a building ...

    The same set of points can often be constructed using a smaller set of tools. For example, using a compass, straightedge, and a piece of paper on which we have the parabola y=x 2 together with the points (0,0) and (1,0), one can construct any complex number that has a solid construction. Likewise, a tool that can draw any ellipse with already ...

  8. Scaling (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scaling_(geometry)

    A scale factor is usually a decimal which scales, or multiplies, some quantity. In the equation y = Cx, C is the scale factor for x. C is also the coefficient of x, and may be called the constant of proportionality of y to x. For example, doubling distances corresponds to a scale factor of two for distance, while cutting a cake in half results ...

    The factor {M a} characterizes a material which efficiency might be compared to another for a given loading case, and the independently of the form factor {G e}. The indicators W = σV / FL and Δ = δE / σL just defined, characterize the macrostructures, while the same notations and symbols in small letters, w = σv / fl and Δ = δE / σl ...
