COMPETENCY: V106.
Demonstrate visualization processes.
OBJECTIVE: V106.02
Summarize basic 3D modeling concepts.
2.
e. Cone
f. Plane
3. 2D shapes can also be created:
a. Arcs, ellipses, circles, curves, and freehand curves are basic _2d_______
shapes typically provided within modeling programs. Shapes may be
combined to create complex objects.
b. __Polygons _____are plane figures made with three or more straight sides
(curves).
c. __Regular ____________ polygons have equal length sides and equal angles.
d. __Splines _________are curves or polygons that are composed of segments
that can be manipulated by ___define________________ placed along the
curve. Control points may be made active and then dragged using a handle
attached to the point.
4. Some programs require the user to __define____________ parameters of the
primitive prior to importing it into the scene; others will bring in a standard
sized object and place it in a selected position.
a. Typical parameters include center point, radius, height, __width_______, etc.
b. Parameters affect the size, placement, and __orientation __of the object.
c. Values provided automatically by the software are called the
__default__________ A typical default would be to bring in an object
oriented in a certain direction with respect to a construction plane.
C. Modeling Techniques
1. __Boolean ______________ tools or operations are used to create objects by
combining, subtracting, or determining the common intersections of various
objects such as primitives.
a. _Union or Addition_________ or Addition (+ or ) is used to combine objects
together into one new object.
may be _open_______ (curves that do not connect back onto the beginning or
closed (lines connect back onto the beginning).
3. A variation of sweeping is _lofting _________, where a series of curves (open or
closed) is lofted or spaced parallel to each other, and then a surface is generated
that connects the contours. Lofting may also be done using a __profile________
shape and a curve along which the profile is lofted. An example of where lofting
is used would be for modeling boat hulls and terrains.
4. Revolve or __Lathe ________ operations allow the user to create a 2D shape and
then revolve it around an axis.
a. Lathe operations emulate the lathe found in manufacturing shops. A lathe is a
tool used to ___rotate________ and shape material by bringing cutting tools
against the material while it spins.
b. The revolution may be a full 360 degrees or any smaller __angle ________
