The Mathematics of Fels Sculptures
THE MATHEMATICS OF FELS SCULPTURES DAVID FELS AND ANGELO B. MINGARELLI Abstract. We give a purely mathematical interpretation and construction of sculptures rendered by one of the authors, known herein as Fels sculptures. We also show that the mathematical framework underlying Ferguson's sculpture, The Ariadne Torus, may be considered a special case of the more general constructions presented here. More general discussions are also presented about the creation of such sculptures whether they be virtual or in higher dimensional space. Introduction Sculptors manifest ideas as material objects. We use a system wherein an idea is symbolized as a solid, governed by a set of rules, such that the sculpture is the expressed material result of applying rules to symbols. The underlying set of rules, being mathematical in nature, may thus lead to enormous abstraction and although sculptures are generally thought of as three dimensional objects, they can be created in four and higher dimensional (unseen) spaces with various projections leading to new and pleasant three dimensional sculptures. The interplay of mathematics and the arts has, of course, a very long and old history and we cannot begin to elaborate on this matter here. Recently however, the problem of creating mathematical programs for the construction of ribbed sculptures by Charles Perry was considered in [3]. For an insightful paper on topological tori leading to abstract art see also [5]. Spiral and twirling sculptures were analysed and constructed in [1]. This paper deals with a technique for sculpting works mostly based on wood (but not necessarily restricted to it) using abstract ideas based on twirls and tori, though again, not limited to them.

Sculptures in S3
Sculptures in S3 Saul Schleimer and Henry Segerman∗ Abstract We describe the construction of a number of sculptures. Each is based on a geometric design native to the three- sphere: the unit sphere in four-dimensional space. Via stereographic projection, we transfer the design to three- dimensional space. All of the sculptures are then fabricated by the 3D printing service Shapeways. 1 Introduction The three-sphere, denoted S3, is a three-dimensional analog of the ordinary two-dimensional sphere, S2. In n+ general, the n–dimensional sphere is a subset of R 1 as follows: n n+1 2 2 2 S = f(x0;x1;:::;xn) 2 R j x0 + x1 + ··· + xn = 1g: Thus S2 can be seen as the usual unit sphere in R3. Visualising objects in dimensions higher than three is non-trivial. However for S3 we can use stereographic projection to reduce the dimension from four to three. n n n Let N = (0;:::;0;1) be the north pole of S . We deﬁne stereographic projection r : S − fNg ! R by x0 x1 xn−1 r(x0;x1;:::;xn) = ; ;:::; : 1 − xn 1 − xn 1 − xn See [1, page 27]. Figure 1a displays the one-dimensional case; this is also a cross-section of the n– dimensional case. For any point (x;y) 2 S1 − fNg draw the straight line L between N and (x;y). Then L meets R1 at a single point; this is r(x;y).

The Mathematics of Mitering and Its Artful Application
The Mathematics of Mitering and Its Artful Application Tom Verhoeff Koos Verhoeff Faculty of Mathematics and CS Valkenswaard, Netherlands Eindhoven University of Technology Den Dolech 2 5612 AZ Eindhoven, Netherlands Email: [email protected] Abstract We give a systematic presentation of the mathematics behind the classic miter joint and variants, like the skew miter joint and the (skew) fold joint. The latter is especially useful for connecting strips at an angle. We also address the problems that arise from constructing a closed 3D path from beams by using miter joints all the way round. We illustrate the possibilities with artwork making use of various miter joints. 1 Introduction The miter joint is well-known in the Arts, if only as a way of making fine frames for pictures and paintings. In its everyday application, a common problem with miter joints occurs when cutting a baseboard for walls meeting at an angle other than exactly 90 degrees. However, there is much more to the miter joint than meets the eye. In this paper, we will explore variations and related mathematical challenges, and show some artwork that this provoked. In Section 2 we introduce the problem domain and its terminology. A systematic mathematical treatment is presented in Section 3. Section 4 shows some artwork based on various miter joints. We conclude the paper in Section 5 with some pointers to further work. 2 Problem Domain and Terminology We will now describe how we encountered new problems related to the miter joint. To avoid misunderstand- ings, we first introduce some terminology. Figure 1: Polygon knot with six edges (left) and thickened with circular cylinders (right) 225 2.1 Cylinders, single and double beveling, planar and spatial mitering Let K be a one-dimensional curve in space, having finite length.

Have You Ever Used Two Picture Planes to Draw a Single Perspective View?
G e n e r a l a r t i c l e have you ever used Two Picture Planes to Draw a Single Perspective View? T o m á S G arc í A S A l gad o Apparently, the use of two picture planes to draw a single view has be a more versatile plane that in addition to representing not been attempted before. Most perspective methods, after Alberti, the appearance of 3D objects would also serve to measure take for granted the use of a single picture plane, disregarding its likely real dimensions? Such a plane, in Modular Perspective [3], use in dual positions. What if two picture planes are necessary to ABSTRACT draw a single view—for example, given a lack of spatial references at can be called the perspective plane (PPL). On the PPL one can ground level to estimate the distance between two objects? This article measure and draw directly the three modular coordinates of demonstrates that to draw the interior of a building from which another all points of interest of any given object in space. In other building can be seen about 190 m away, where the projection of such words, the PPL is a true three-dimensional plane, despite building on the first picture plane would be imprecise, it may be wise to actually being two-dimensional. use a second picture plane. This leads to consideration of how objects In addition, the PPL can be of any size, since all points are change shape as they move away from the viewer.

Is a right rectangular prism hollow? That is, does it include the points inside? DISCUSSION Right Rectangular Prism: Let E and 퐸’ be two parallel planes.1 Let B be a rectangular region* in the plane E.2 At each point P of B, consider the 푃푃̅̅̅̅̅′ perpendicular to E, joining P to a point 푃′ of the plane 퐸’.3 The union of all these segments is called a right rectangular prism.4 * A rectangular region is the union of a rectangle and its interior. Definition Review Lateral Edge Lateral Face Base General Cylinder: Let E and 퐸’ be two parallel planes, let B be a region* in the plane E, and let L be a line that intersects E and 퐸’ but not B. At each point P of B, consider 푃푃̅̅̅̅̅′ parallel to L, joining P to a point 푃′ of the plane 퐸’. The union of all these segments is called a general cylinder with base B. * A region refers to a polygonal region (triangle, quadrilateral, pentagon, and hexagon), a circular region or regions that can be decomposed into such regions. MOD3 L6 1 Compare the definitions of right rectangular prism and general cylinder. How are they different? The definitions are similar. However, in the right rectangular prism, the region B is a rectangular region. In a general cylinder, the shape of B is not specified. Also, the segments (푃푃̅̅̅̅̅′) in the right rectangular prism must be perpendicular.

General Cylinders: 1 and 6 Prisms: 2 and 7 Figures that come to a point with a polygonal base: 4 and 5 Figures that come to a point with a curved base: 3 and 8 DISCUSSION Rectangular Pyramid: Given a rectangular region B in a plane E and a point V not in E, the rectangular pyramid with base B and vertex V is the collection of all segments VP for any point P in B. Image 4 from the Opening Exercise is an example of a rectangular pyramid. MOD3 L7 1 General Cone: Let B be a region in a plane E and V be a point not in E. The cone with base B and vertex V is the union of all 푉푃̅̅̅̅ for all point P in B. Images 2, 4, 5, and 8 from the Opening Exercise are examples of general cones. The definition for rectangular pyramid and general cone are essentially the same. What is the only difference? The only difference is that a rectangular pyramid has a rectangular base. A general cone can have any region for a base. Important Notes about Pyramids and Cones A general cone is named by its base. o A general cone with a disk as a base is called a circular cone. o A general cone with a polygonal base is called a pyramid. Examples of this include a rectangular pyramid or a triangular pyramid.

2. Basics of the Depiction in Drawings
2. Basics of the Depiction in Drawings Most of the articles that shall be subject to the protection under the Design Act are in the form of a three-dimensional shape. However, when filing an application for design registration concerning a three-dimensional form, applicants must represent it in drawings depicted on a two-dimensional plane, and so on. In other words, the object of a design right is not a real three-dimensional shape, but a three-dimensional form depicted on such two-dimensional drawings. Therefore, the drawing methods are defined in details so that the third party may also correctly understand the form, which is the object of the right. Thus, it is necessary to depict drawings, etc. according to the formulated drawing methods so that the form, which is the object of a design right, may be understood correctly. It is also necessary to depict necessary drawings so that the entire form, which is the object of a design right, may be understood as being specified for design registration. In addition, views that help in understanding of the design need to be depicted, where necessary (Drawings for explaining the form or the state of use, in which lines, etc. that do not constitute the design in the application are added, shall be indicated as “Reference view of yy” to be distinguished from the drawings that depict only constitute elements of the design in the application). The basics of how to depict drawings will be explained below. 14 A. Drawings necessary for specifying the form 2A.1 Types of drawing formulated in the Form and basic points to be noted (1) The types of drawings necessary for specifying the form (i) In cases where the design is the form of a three-dimensional shape, in principle, the front view, the rear view, the left side view, the right side view, the top view and the bottom view that have been prepared at the same scale by the orthographic projection method, regarded as a set of drawings (hereinafter referred to as “a set of six views), need to be prepared.

Primarily, it played a specific role as an artistic game and manifested the artists’ own mastery, while often playing the serviceable role of an artistic advertisement. This study presents a detailed definition of anamorphic images together with their precise classification, and provides a description of the methods used for their construction. The problems discussed here have been presented on a historical background. The examples of particularly chosen anamorphic images have been presented together with their visualised images. The theoretical background, how one can create such anamorphic images, provides the basis for further design and development of anamorphic images to be created both in an urban space of a town, and in the interiors of public use..
