  • Flexible Octahedra in the Projective Extension of the Euclidean 3-Space
    Journal for Geometry and Graphics Volume 14 (2010), No. 2, 147–169. Flexible Octahedra in the Projective Extension of the Euclidean 3-Space Georg Nawratil Institute of Discrete Mathematics and Geometry, Vienna University of Technology Wiedner Hauptstrasse 8-10/104, Vienna, A-1040, Austria email: [email protected] Abstract. In this paper we complete the classification of flexible octahedra in the projective extension of the Euclidean 3-space. If all vertices are Euclidean points then we get the well known Bricard octahedra. All flexible octahedra with one vertex on the plane at infinity were already determined by the author in the context of self-motions of TSSM manipulators with two parallel rotary axes. Therefore we are only interested in those cases where at least two vertices are ideal points. Our approach is based on Kokotsakis meshes and reducible compositions of two four-bar linkages. Key Words: Flexible octahedra, Kokotsakis meshes, Bricard octahedra MSC 2010: 53A17, 52B10 1. Introduction A polyhedron is said to be flexible if its spatial shape can be changed continuously due to changes of its dihedral angles only, i.e., every face remains congruent to itself during the flex. 1.1. Review In 1897 R. Bricard [5] proved that there are three types of flexible octahedra1 in the Euclidean 3-space E3. These so-called Bricard octahedra are as follows: Type 1: All three pairs of opposite vertices are symmetric with respect to a common line. Type 2: Two pairs of opposite vertices are symmetric with respect to a common plane which passes through the remaining two vertices.

It soon became obvious that at least 4 colours are needed, which can be easily seen thanks to a graph with 7 vertices, the so called Moser spindle, found by William and Leo Moser. There is also a relatively simple colouring by John R. Isbell, which shows that the chromatic number is at most 7. And despite the simplicity of the bounds, these remained the strongest ones until 2018, when biologist Aubrey de Grey found a subgraph which was not colourable with 4 colours. This meant that the chromatic number of the plane is at least 5.

  • Kinematic Synthesis of Linkages
    FOUR-BAR COUPLER-POINT CURVES 6-1 THE FOUR-BAR LINKAGE Link,vork, in its early applications, consisted mainly of revolute­ connected members and ,vas widely used for converting the con­ tinuous rotation of a ,vater wheel into a reciprocating motion suited to piston pumps (Fig. 6-1). The piston-cylinder com­ bination at the end of the line represents a prismatic pair, of course, but ahead of this there are only the revolute connections generally associated ,Yith linkwork. Agricola's arrangements show wheel and pump--power source and point of work-fairly close together. Such compactness did not al,vays prevail; link­ works of magnificent proportions were also part of the past. A linkwork is a means of power transmission as ,vell as being a motion transformer. Before the introduction of rope transmis­ sions and the now universal electric wire, linkwork ,vas employed for long-distance transmission of power. Gigantic linkages, principally for mine pumping operations, connected water wheels at the riverbank to pumps high up on the hillside. One such installation (1713) in Germany ,vas 3 km long. Such linkages consisted in the main of ,vhat ,ve call four-bar linkages, i.e., planar four-revolute mechanisms, and terminated in a slider-crank mechanism with a prismatic pair. ,roe ... ,._, Linl.....i.b<t •..,.,...... .i-1-.1,.,.,.P", """""'h • ""ntw,,.

  • Combinatorics of Bricard's Octahedra Arxiv:2004.01236V1 [Math.MG] 2
    Combinatorics of Bricard’s octahedra Matteo Gallet∗, Georg Grasegger∗,. Jan Legerský◦ Josef Schicho∗,◦ We re-prove the classification of flexible octahedra, obtained by Bricard at the beginning of the XX century, by means of combinatorial objects satisfying some elementary rules. The explanations of these rules rely on the use of a well-known creation of modern algebraic geometry, the moduli space of stable rational curves with marked points, for the description of configurations of graphs on the sphere. Once one accepts the objects and the rules, the classification becomes elementary (though not trivial) and can be enjoyed without the need of a very deep background on the topic. 1 Introduction Cauchy proved [Cau13] that every convex polyhedron is rigid, in the sense that it cannot move keeping the shape of its faces. Hence flexible polyhedra must be concave, and indeed Bricard discovered [Bri97, Bri26, Bri27] three families of concave flexible octahedra. Lebesgue lectured about Bricard’s construction in 1938/39 [Leb67], and Bennett discussed flexible octahedra in his work [Ben12]. In recent years, there has been renewed interest in the topic; see the works of Baker [Bak80, Bak95, Bak09], Stachel [Sta87, Sta14, Sta15], Nawratil [Naw10, NR18], and others [Con78, BS90, Mik02, Ale10, AC11, Nel10, Nel12, CY12]. The goal of this paper is to re-prove Bricard’s result by employing modern techniques in algebraic geometry that hopefully may be applied to more general situations. The three families of flexible octahedra are the following (see Figures1 and2): ∗ Supported by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF): W1214-N15, project DK9. arXiv:2004.01236v1 [math.MG] 2 Apr 2020 ◦ Supported by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF): P31061.

Three-fold and two-fold patterns -- by contrast? Square of opposition and Crossed quadrilaterals: the cognitive challenge? Shifting between strategic patterns: transmission systems and gearing References Introduction The following presentation follows from discussion of the Coping Capacity of Governance as Dangerously Questionable: recognizing assumptions and unasked questions when facing crisis (2019), and specifically from the closing section (From disorderly "collapse" to orderly "renaissance", 2019). The focus there was on exploring mnemonic aids to comprehension of 16-fold patterns, as exemplified by the 16 binary truth functions, but characterized by a wide range of other uses of 16-fold patterns, whose potential relationships appear to merit attention with respect to governance (Deprecation of potential correspondences: 16-fold patterns? 2019). Any 16-fold pattern is a provocative challenge to comprehension, given the constraints on human capacity with respect to the complexity of any such pattern as a whole (Conceptual clustering and cognitive constraints, 2014).

Usually design methods Angulated elements were first introduced by consider the scissor elements as modules. Alternatively, it Hoberman [15, 16]. This new type of SLEs were able to is possible to consider the loops as modules. In this paper, subtend a constant angle. We observe the same property in loop assembly method is used such that antiparallelogram Servadio’s foldable polyhedra [17]. Hoberman’s latter loops are placed along a circle, to construct a deployable work, the Iris Dome [16], is nothing but a circular structure. The research shows that it is possible to application of the angulated unit subtending constant construct radially deployable structures with identical angle between the unit lines, therefore capable of radial antiparallelogram loops with this method. Then kinematic deployment. and geometrical properties of the construction are Angulated units were further explored by You and analyzed.

    Synthesis of Scalable Planar Scissor Linkages with Anti-Parallelogram Loops Ş. Gür1, C. Karagöz2, G. Kiper3 and K. Korkmaz4 1İzmir Institute of Technology, Turkey, e-mail: [email protected] 2İzmir Institute of Technology, Turkey, e-mail: [email protected] 3İzmir Institute of Technology, Turkey, e-mail: [email protected] 4İzmir Institute of Technology, Turkey, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract. Scissor linkages are commonly used as mechanisms for scaling objects. They constitute a significant portion of deployable structures. Since 1960s many researchers sought to form novel structures using the scissor units. In 1990s Hoberman brought a new perspective to the field when he used the loops, not the units to form linkages. Starting from mid 2000s, other researchers joined into this new approach of design. One of the latest researches presented a design for scaling a circular forms with anti- parallelogram loops. This study shows that an anti-parallelogram loop assembly can also be used for scaling planar curves with variable curvature. Key words: scalable scissor linkage, anti-parallelogram loop, loop assembly method 1 Introduction Mechanisms that can transform between an open (deployed) and a closed (stowed) configuration are called deployable structures [8]. Scissor linkages are widely used for deployable structures. Scissor-like elements (SLEs) are ternary links with revolute joints. Two SLEs connected at the middle joint constitute a scissor unit. The first academic study on SLEs was conducted by Pinero in 1961 for his design of a deployable theater composed of pantographic elements [17]. Escrig defined the foldability conditions [2, 3]. The subject remains to be of interest today for many other researchers [13, 16, 22].

SHANKARAKALIDOSS Department of Mathematics, Kings College of Engineering, Punalkulam, Pudukkottai (Dist) (T.N), India RECEIVED : 24 June, 2013 REVISED : 15 January, 2014 In this paper we report on an infinite sequence of rectangles where in each of the addition of the area and perimeter are expressed as the difference of two squares. The recurrence relations satisfied by the solutions are presented. KEY WORDS: Infinite sequence of rectangles, the area, the perimeter and the recurrence relations. SUBJECT CLASSIFICATION: MSC: 11A, 11D INTRODUCTION In Euclidean plane geometry, a rectangle is any quadrilateral with four right angles. It can also be defined as an equiangular quadrilateral, since equiangular means that all of its angles are equal (360°/4 = 90°). It can also be defined as a parallelogram containing a right angle. A rectangle with four sides of equal length is a square. The term oblong is occasionally used to refer to a non-square rectangle. A rectangle with vertices ABCD would be denoted as ABCD. The word rectangle comes from the Latin rectangulus, which is a combination of rectus (right) and angulus (angle). A so-called crossed rectangle is a crossed (self-intersecting) quadrilateral which consists of two opposite sides of a rectangle along with the two diagonals It is a special case of an antiparallelogram, and its angles are not right angles.
