Modélisation tridimensionnelleLa modélisation tridimensionnelle est l'étape en infographie tridimensionnelle qui consiste à créer, dans un logiciel de modélisation 3D, un objet en trois dimensions, par ajout, soustraction et modifications de ses constituants. La révolution consiste à faire tourner un profil 2D autour d'un axe 3D : on obtient ainsi un volume de révolution. C'est la technique majoritairement utilisée dans le jeu vidéo, et le cinéma d'animation. La modélisation polygonale induit une marge d'erreur de proportions et de dimensions le plus souvent invisible à l'œil nu.
Mesh (objet)Un en ou maillage est un objet tridimensionnel constitué de sommets, d'arêtes et de faces organisés en polygones sous forme de fil de fer dans une infographie tridimensionnelle. Les faces se composent généralement de triangles, de quadrilatères ou d'autres polygones convexes simples, car cela simplifie le rendu. Les faces peuvent être combinées pour former des polygones concaves plus complexes, ou des polygones avec des trous. L'étude des en fait partie importante de l'infographie tridimensionnelle.
Types of meshA mesh is a representation of a larger geometric domain by smaller discrete cells. Meshes are commonly used to compute solutions of partial differential equations and render computer graphics, and to analyze geographical and cartographic data. A mesh partitions space into elements (or cells or zones) over which the equations can be solved, which then approximates the solution over the larger domain. Element boundaries may be constrained to lie on internal or external boundaries within a model.
Polygonal modelingIn 3D computer graphics, polygonal modeling is an approach for modeling objects by representing or approximating their surfaces using polygon meshes. Polygonal modeling is well suited to scanline rendering and is therefore the method of choice for real-time computer graphics. Alternate methods of representing 3D objects include NURBS surfaces, subdivision surfaces, and equation-based (implicit surface) representations used in ray tracers. The basic object used in mesh modeling is a vertex, a point in three-dimensional space.
3D scanning3D scanner is the process of analyzing a real-world object or environment to collect three dimensional data of its shape and possibly its appearance (e.g. color). The collected data can then be used to construct digital 3D models. A 3D scanner can be based on many different technologies, each with its own limitations, advantages and costs. Many limitations in the kind of objects that can be digitised are still present. For example, optical technology may encounter many difficulties with dark, shiny, reflective or transparent objects.
Work–life interfaceWork–life interface is the intersection of work and personal life. There are many aspects of one's personal life that can intersect with work, including family, leisure, and health. Work–life interface is bidirectional; for instance, work can interfere with private life, and private life can interfere with work. This interface can be adverse in nature (e.g., work–life conflict) or can be beneficial (e.g., work–life enrichment) in nature. Recent research has shown that the work–life interface has become more boundary-less, especially for technology-enabled workers.
