3D Origami Art

Author: Jun Mitani
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1498765351
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 131

Book Description
Easily Create Origami with Curved Folds and Surfaces Origami—making shapes only through folding—reveals a fascinating area of geometry woven with a variety of representations. The world of origami has progressed dramatically since the advent of computer programs to perform the necessary computations for origami design. 3D Origami Art presents the design methods underlying 3D creations derived from computation. It includes numerous photos and design drawings called crease patterns, which are available for download on the author’s website. Through the book’s clear figures and descriptions, readers can easily create geometric 3D structures out of a set of lines and curves drawn on a 2D plane. The author uses various shapes of sheets such as rectangles and regular polygons, instead of square paper, to create the origami. Many of the origami creations have a 3D structure composed of curved surfaces, and some of them have complicated forms. However, the background theory underlying all the creations is very simple. The author shows how different origami forms are designed from a common theory.

ISBN: 9781098887506
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 49

Book Description
This book is a compilation of fold patterns and cutting patterns. As a reference, each of the titles includes a public access video, created by NeoSpica (Oscar Paredes) for the "Neospica Paper Structures" channel. The videos show the creation process in which the patterns presented in this compilation are used to create the paper structures. If you want to acquire this book as a recommendation, check the titles of your interest in the videos of the channel to evaluate the level of difficulty and the usefulness of these patterns to create the structures. The only requirement is the determination to create. /// I appreciate the art of cutting and folding paper and the art forms that can be created. In this document there are 17 patterns of cut and fold based on personal designs and interpretations of works of art from the world of origami and kirigami. The folding structures that are presented are based on tessellations, corrugations, collapsible cylinder, rigid foldable cylinder, miura fold and curved folding. The structures created with cutting methods are based on the combination of folds and paper cut out art. Each of these models has a video with a sequence of partial or total elaboration published by NeoSpica (Oscar Paredes) for the youtube channel "Neospica Paper Structures". Titles of the models presented in this document: 1 3D STAR FOUR POINTS.

Geometric Folding Algorithms

ISBN: 1107394090
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 388

Book Description
Did you know that any straight-line drawing on paper can be folded so that the complete drawing can be cut out with one straight scissors cut? That there is a planar linkage that can trace out any algebraic curve, or even 'sign your name'? Or that a 'Latin cross' unfolding of a cube can be refolded to 23 different convex polyhedra? Over the past decade, there has been a surge of interest in such problems, with applications ranging from robotics to protein folding. With an emphasis on algorithmic or computational aspects, this treatment gives hundreds of results and over 60 unsolved 'open problems' to inspire further research. The authors cover one-dimensional (1D) objects (linkages), 2D objects (paper), and 3D objects (polyhedra). Aimed at advanced undergraduate and graduate students in mathematics or computer science, this lavishly illustrated book will fascinate a broad audience, from school students to researchers.
