Study Notes

Solid Modeling and Drafting - Unit 4: Geometric Transformation

  • Geometric Transformations: Translation, scaling, rotation, reflection/mirror, shear, homogeneous transformation, inverse transformation, concatenated transformation

  • Coordinate Systems:

    • Model Coordinate System (MCS)
    • Working Coordinate System (WCS)
    • Screen Coordinate System (SCS)
    • Mapping of coordinate systems

  • Projections of Geometric Models:

    • Orthographic projections
    • Perspective projections
    • Design and Engineering applications

Two-Dimensional Geometric Transformations

  • Geometric Transformation: Changing graphics by applying transformations like translation, scaling, rotation, shearing, reflection. 2D transformation takes place on a 2D plane

  • Uses of Geometric Transformation:

    • Creating geometric models
    • Editing geometric models (using commands like translation, scaling, rotation, shearing, reflection)
    • Obtaining different views (orthographic, isometric) of models

Types of Geometric Transformations

  • Translation
  • Scaling
  • Rotation
  • Shearing
  • Reflection

1. Translation

  • Translation: Moves an object from one location to another without altering it in other ways.
  • Distances in X and Y axes affect position. ( tx (X direction) and ty (Y direction))
  • Matrix form of equation : x’= x + Tx, y’ = y + Ty . Where x’, y’ is the new position and x, y are original coordinates

2. Rotation

  • Rotation: Rotates an object about a specific angle from its origin
  • Fig: Shows that the point P(x, y) is located at angle θ from the horizontal coordinate with distance 'r' from its origin.
  • After rotating it at the angle θ with constant distance r we get new point P (x’, y’).
  • r: Constant distance from the origin
  • θ: Original angular position from the X-coordinate

3. Scaling

  • Scaling: Changes the size of an object by multiplying the scaling factors with original coordinates of the object.
  • Sx and Sy are the scaling factors for X and Y, respectively.
  • Formulas: x’ = Sx * x, and y’ = Sy * y. Where x’, y’ is the new position, x, y are original coordinates, Sx & Sy are scaling factors.

4. Reflection

  • Reflection: Creates a mirror image of an object.
  • Types of reflections: About the x-axis, y-axis, origin and the line y = x

5. Shear

  • Shear: Slides one part of an object relative to another.
    • X-shear
    • Y-shear

Concatenated Transformation

  • Combination of different geometric transformations, achieved through matrix multiplication.
  • Advantage: Simplifies multiple transformations into one operation.

Coordinate Systems

  • Model Coordinate System (MCS) :
    • Reference space for the model's information.
    • Stores graphical information.
    • Used by CAD software
  • User Coordinate System (UCS/WCS) :
  • The user inputs graphical information.
  • Screen Coordinate System (SCS) :
    • Display-device dependent coordinate system.
    • Lower left corner is the origin in 2D display.

Geometric Mapping

  • Changes the graphical representation without altering size, shape, orientation, or the relative positions of elements relative to one another.
  • Changes description of graphics elements from one coordinate system to another.

Projection of Geometric Models

  • Projection: Converts 3D models into 2D.
  • Types:
    • Parallel projections: Projectors are parallel
    • Perspective projections: Projectors intersect at a point
  • Orthographic Projections:
    • front view, top view, side view. Used commonly in engineering drawings and CAD.
