Summary
The basic properties of the projection. Central collineation, perspective
affinity. The mapping projection, the Monge’s projection, the orthogonal
axonometry. Elementary surfaces and solid. Circular helix and moving trihedral.
Surfaces of revolution, quadrics of revolution. The ruled surfaces, the
evelopable and especially the skew ruled surfaces. Spiral surfaces.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
• to train development of space abilities
• to handle by different types of projection methods, to understand to their principles, to be familiar with their
properties, advantages and disadvantages
• to acquaint with geometric characteristics of curves and surfaces that are used in technical practice of a given
specialization
Course Contents
1. Parallel projection. Improper objects. Axial affinity in plane.
2. Monge projection: representation of point, line and plane, the basic position problems.
3. Monge projection: the basic metric problems, displaying of circle.
4. Orthogonal axonometry: principles and representation of point, line and plane, the basic position problems.
5. Orthogonal axonometry: object in coordinate or parallel plane, notch method.
6. Curves - the creation, distribution, movement frame. Circular helix.
7. Surfaces: describing, classification, tangent plane and normal.
