Ambiguous objects

Ambiguous objects are visual information that makes people feel different from different directions and angles. Even though they are the same objects, they will still allow the observer to draw different conclusions. Ambiguous objects often have two different characteristics to induce observers to draw two different conclusions. So in simple terms, different angles look different. So when applied to three-dimensional graphics, we can create a certain object, making it look different from diagonally forward and diagonally behind. This is the theme of this time.
Oh roar, the picture shows two different angles through the mirror. It looks directly that the top of the object is a rhombus. However, through the refraction of the mirror, we can know that its shape looks round, but in fact, from From other angles, it should be neither a circle nor a diamond, so let's try to make a similar object so that it can see different shapes from different angles.

Then I try to make a very simple burger. Then a burger will include an outer outline (the shape of the entire burger). From another angle, I want to see the mixed food in the burger, such as lettuce leaves and cheese. So in this case, we first make out the shape of the appearance we hope to get:
The equations of "bread" are (1-x^10)^5 and -(1-x^10)^5, which are the upper and lower half of "bread," respectively. "Lettuce" is a cos function, obtained by changing the value, the equation is 0.2*cos(900*x)+0.2, and the equation of "cheese" is (0.2-0.2^(x^10))^7. The overall look is good, so our goal is to make an object to see the outline of the burger from one direction and lettuce and cheese in the other direction. After the graphics are generated, we can get this shape:
It looked a little strange, it looked like a paw, and the outline of the hamburger was not visible. But this is normal because only through a specific angle can we really see the pattern we want, then by displaying the previous function pattern and the formed object at the same time, we can easily find the pattern we want.
This is what I want. It looks great, and its appearance is somewhat confusing, but from a specific angle, it can show people its special features.

Why I chose this: Just like the first picture, I want to make a crease and turn it into a straight line (or a curve that looks flat). This looks cool, so lettuce is transformed into bread Thoughts, and if there are too many creases on the other line, the overall look is not very coordinated. At this time, I suddenly thought of Hamburg, so I made a model like this.

Do Over: Integration Over a Region in a Plane

Throughout the semester we have covered a variety of topics and how their mathematical orientation applies to real world scenarios. One topic we discussed, and I would like to revisit, is integration over a region in a plane which involves calculating a double integral. Integrating functions of two variables allows us to calculate the volume under the function in a 3D space. You can see a more in depth description and my previous example in my blog post, https://ukyma391.blogspot.com/2021/09/integration-for-over-regions-in-plane_27.html . I want to revisit this topic because in my previous attempt my volume calculations were incorrect, and my print lacked structural stability. I believed this print and calculation was the topic I could most improve on and wanted to give it another chance. What needed Improvement? The function used previously was f(x) = cos(xy) bounded on [-3,3] x [-1,3]. After solving for the estimated and actual volume, it was difficult to represent in a print...

Knot 9-31

Knot 9-31 A knot is mathematics is defined as a closed, non-self-intersecting curve that is placed in three dimensions and cannot be the "unknot". The main difference between a knot in the real world and a known in mathematics is that a knot in mathematics does not contain any extra strands. The example following will help visualize this. Today, I have specifically chosen knot 9-31 from the Knot Atlas. This knot is very unique and contains some very interesting properties that we are going to look into. The Crossing Number For my knot today, I chose knot 9-31 from the Knot Atlas. This knot contains 9 crossings! The Unknotting Number The unknotting number is exactly what is sounds like. This is the minimum number of times the knot must be passed through itself to untie it. Luckily, the Knot Atlas is super useful and provides the unknotting number for us, but I still...

Do Over: Integration for Over Regions in the Plane

Introduction Earlier in the semester, we visited the topic of integration for over region regions in the plane. This was our first experience with taking integration in the third dimension. To do this, we had to use double integrals to calculate the volume of a region between two surfaces. This topic seems relatively straightforward and anyone who has taken a higher calculus class knows of double integrals. Today, we are going to revisit this topic for a couple of reasons. Why Double Integrals Again? As mentioned before, I am revisiting this topic for a couple of reasons. One of the main reasons is due to how the 3D print turned out. Due to the function, I chose, the final rectangular prism was stand alone. When printing, this resulted in a sloppy prism that lacked structural integrity. The image below is a reference to my original design that includes the prism that had the issue. The main cause of ...
