    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.
