Solid Geometry (film) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Solid Geometry Directed by Denis Lawson Written by Ian McEwan (story) Denis Lawson Starring Ewan McGregor Ruth Millar Release date(s) Running time 24 min. Country United Kingdom Language English Solid Geometry is a short TV film directed by Denis Lawson , starring Ewan McGregor and Ruth Millar . It is based on a short story by Ian McEwan published in collection First Love, Last Rites edit Plot summary Phil (McGregor) is a successful advertising executive and Maisie (Millar) is his young and hedonistic wife, but their lives are thrown into turmoil when Phil inherits his great-great grandfather's secret diaries. He becomes obsessed with research into solid geometry contained in the diaries and is fascinated by the theory of "a plane without a surface." His pursuit of this mythical geometric concept tears his marriage apart. The film is interspersed with flashbacks showing Phil's great-great grandfather discovering the same mysteries of the supernatural side of geometry as Phil is uncovering by reading the diaries. Eventually Phil follows the instructions buried in the diaries and begins carefully folding a large sheet of paper in on itself like a lotus flower, then the folded paper emits a bright light, folds over itself and disappears. On seeing this, he dedicated his life to understanding more about the diaries and his great-great grandfather's mysterious disappearance.

6. Flipcode - Constructive Solid Geometry I have a question which I hope you will be able to answer for me (or at least point me in the right direction). It's to do with Constructive Solid Geometry. http://www.flipcode.com/archives/Constructive_Solid_Geometry.shtml

Constructive Solid Geometry Question submitted by (13 November 2000) Return to The Archives I have a question which I hope you will be able to answer for me (or at least point me in the right direction). It's to do with Constructive Solid Geometry. Im currently writing an editor for my engine which is very similar in most respects to worldcraft. Now what I need to do is to have the ability to CARVE one object from another, for example, if I have a solid cube, and i place a cylinder partially inside that cube, and hit CARVE, it will subtract the shape of that cylinder from the cube. This will be entirely in the editor, so i need to know how to split my geometry/faces up to subtract (and maybe even add at a later date) brushes from/to other geometry. The only example I have ever seen which touches on this subject, uses BSP trees to do a lot of the work, but I'm not using BSP trees at all. Hoping you can shed any light on this huge void of information =) What you're looking for is traditionally referred to as Regularized Boolean Set Operations. Originally, these operations were created for use in CSG operations where objects were defined mathematically, not discreetly (i.e. polygonal objects or, "boundary representations".) The answer is somewhat long, so I've broken it up into sections. Regularized Boolean Set Operations: What are they?

Solid geometry - Definition In mathematics solid geometry was the traditional name for the geometry of three-dimensional Euclidean space space we live in. It was studied as a sequel to plane geometry Stereometry deals with the measurements of volumes of various solid figures cylinder , circular cone , truncated cone, sphere prisms blades wine casks . The Pythagoreans had dealt with the sphere and regular solids, but the pyramid , prism, cone and cylinder were but little known until the Platonists took them in hand. Eudoxus established their mensuration, proving the pyramid and cone to have one-third the content of a prism and cylinder on the same base and of the same height, and was probably the discoverer of a proof that the volumes of spheres are as the cubes of their radii See also: Archimedes Demiurge Johannes Kepler , planimetry, Plato Plato's Timaeus ...partly from the 1911 Encyclopaedia Britannica Basic topics of solid geometry Basic topics are: incidence of planes and lines dihedral angle and solid angle the cube cuboid parallelopiped the tetrahedron and other pyramids prisms octahedron dodecahedron ... cones and cylinders the sphere other quadrics spheroid ellipsoid paraboloid and hyperboloids Other topics More advanced are the study of projective geometry of three dimensions leading to proof of Desargues' theorem by using an extra dimension further polyhedra descriptive geometry Analytic geometry and vector techniques have a major impact by allowing the systematic use of linear equations and matrix algebra; this becomes more important for higher dimensions.

12. Solid Geometry - Types Of Solids Solid Geometry cubes, rectangular solids, prisms, cylinders, spheres, cones, pyramids, nets of solids http://www.onlinemathlearning.com/solid-geometry.html

Solid Geometry Solid geometry is concerned with three-dimensional shapes. Some examples of three-dimensional shapes are cubes rectangular solids prisms cylinders ... cones and pyramids . We will also discuss some nets of solids Cubes A cube is a three-dimensional figure with six matching square sides. The figure above shows a cube. The dotted lines indicate edges hidden from your view. If s is the length of one of its sides, the Volume of the cube = s Since the cube has six square-shape sides, the Surface area of a cube = 6 s Rectangular Solids In a rectangular solid, the length, width and height may be of different lengths. The volume of the above rectangular solid would be the product of the length, width and height that is Volume of rectangular solid = lwh Surface area of rectangular solid = 2( lw wh lh Prisms A prism is a solid that has two congruent parallel bases that are polygons. The polygons form the bases of the prism and the length of the edge joining the two bases is called the height. Triangle-shaped base Pentagon-shaped base The above diagrams show two prisms: one with a triangle-shaped base called a triangular prism and another with a pentagon-shaped base called a pentagonal prism.

Constructive Solid Geometry Constructive Solid Geometry , or CSG for short, is yet another way of representing solids. A CSG solid is constructed from a few primitives with Boolean operators ( i.e. , set union, intersection and difference). Thus, a CSG solid can be written as a set equations and can also be considered a design methodology. CSG Primitives The standard CSG primitives consist of the block ( i.e. , cube), triangular prism, sphere, cylinder, cone and torus. These six primitives are in some normal or generic form and must be instantiated by the user to be used in his/her design. Moreover, the instantiated primitive may require transformations such as scaling, translation and rotation to be positioned at the desired place. Suppose the block primitive is defined by its "lower left" corner and "upper right" corner . To produce a rectangular box with center at and height and width 3 and length 5, a user may first scale the block primitive 1.5 times in the y - and z -direction and 2.5 times in the x -direction, and then translate the result to

B ELIEVE M E N OT! A S KEPTICs G UIDE Next: Algebra 1 Up: Geometry Previous: The Pythagorean Theorem: Solid Geometry Most of us learned how to calculate the volumes of various solid or 3-dimensional objects even before we were told that the name for the system of conventions and "laws" governing such topics was "Solid Geometry." For instance, there is the cube , whose volume V is the cube (same chicken/egg problem again) of the length of one of its 8 edges . Similarly, a cylinder has a volume V equal to the product of its cross-sectional area A and its height h perpendicular to the base: V Ah . Note that this works just as well for any shape of the cross-section - square, rectangle, triangle, circle or even some irregular oddball shape. If you were fairly advanced in High School math, you probably learned a bit more abstract or general stuff about solids. But the really deep understanding that (I hope) you brought away with you was an awareness of the qualitative difference between 1-dimensional lengths , 2-dimensional areas and 3-dimensional volumes . This awareness can be amazingly powerful even without any "hairy Math details" if you consider what it implies about how these things change with scale Figure: Triangular, square and circular right cylinders.
