Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricacies of descriptive geometry, a branch of mathematics concerned with visually representing three-dimensional objects on a two-dimensional plane. The author meticulously guides readers through the fundamental principles of orthographic projection, a technique that employs perpendicular lines to create accurate representations of points, planes, and lines in space. Originating from the works of Gaspard Monge in the late 18th century, descriptive geometry revolutionized engineering and architectural design by providing a standardized method for visualizing and communicating complex geometric forms. This book systematically explores the theoretical foundations of the subject, covering topics such as revolution of objects, projection of curves, and the classification and generation of various surfaces, including cylindrical, conical, and warped surfaces. The book delves into the practical applications of descriptive geometry, addressing problems related to tangent planes, intersections of surfaces, and the development of surfaces, demonstrating its utility in solving real-world engineering challenges. The exploration of spherical projections, shades and shadows, linear perspective, and isometric projections further broadens the reader's understanding of spatial relationships and their graphical representation. By offering a comprehensive and accessible treatment of descriptive geometry, this book equips readers with the tools and knowledge to analyze, visualize, and solve a wide range of geometric problems, making it an invaluable resource for students, engineers, architects, and anyone interested in the art of graphical representation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330385555_0
