This article shows the geometric modeling and virtual reconstruction of the optical telegraph by Agustín de Betancourt and Abraham Louis Breguet developed at the end of the 18th century. Autodesk Inventor Professional software has been used to obtain the three-dimensional (3D) model of this historical invention and its geometric documentation. The material for the research is available on the website of the Betancourt Project of the Canary Orotava Foundation for the History of Science. Thanks to the three-dimensional modeling performed, it has been possible to explain in detail both its operation and the assembly system of this invention in a coherent way. After carrying out its 3D modeling and functional analysis, it was discovered that the transmissions in the telegraph were not performed by hemp ropes but rather by metal chains with flat links, considerably reducing possible error. Similarly, it has also been found that the use of the gimbal joint facilitated the adaptability of the invention to geographical areas where there was a physical impediment to the alignment of telegraph stations. In addition, it was not now necessary for the telescope frames to be located parallel to the mast frame (frame of the indicator arrow) and therefore they could work in different planes.

This paper considers an approach towards the building of new classes of symmetric closed curves with two or more focal points, which can be obtained by generalizing classical definitions of the ellipse, Cassini, and Cayley ovals. A universal numerical method for creating such curves in mathematical packages is introduced. Specific aspects of the provided numerical data in computer-aided design systems with B-splines for three-dimensional modeling are considered. The applicability of the method is demonstrated, as well as the possibility to provide high smoothness of the curvature profile at the specified accuracy of modeling.

The article deals with aspects of solving applied problems related to the capabilities of the automated COMPASS 3D system for geometric modeling of shipbuilding objects-vessel hull surfaces. The method for the ship's hull modeling based on flat curves, sections constructed on different offset planes is considered. A method is shown for improving the accuracy of the simulated frame surface of the ship's hull by introducing intermediate sections into the model frame. The concept of the modeling quality of the frame surface and the method of determining quantitative indicators for evaluating the frame surface quality are proposed. The practical implementation of the method of three-dimensional modeling of ship hulls is performed, and the comparative research results on the quality of the ship's surface modeling are presented.

Introducing three-dimensional modeling technology into the teaching of modern engineering graphics is a hot topic for graphics areas in recent years. Three-dimensional geometric modeling principles, methods, and skills will be integrated and infiltrated to modern engineering graphics course, and this will form a new teaching theory, content and process with modern engineering graphics teaching trends. The teaching reform of modern engineering graphics in the three- dimensional modeling environment must be imperative. This paper analyzes the shortcomings of a traditional teaching system, and explores the teaching mode which three-dimensional modeling is as the mainline and integrates two-dimensional design. Also proposes a combination of teaching methods, and makes the exploration of teaching reform.

Purpose. The purpose of this study is to develop a mathematical description of the transformation of the frame model of weft-knits under the action of tensile forces in the courswise direction for further three-dimensional modeling of the knited structure.Methodology. Methods of theoretical analysis and synthesis, basics of knitting theory, methods of geometric modeling and parameterization were used in the research process.Findings. Considering the knitwear stretching during the use of the clothing is one of the determining factors of the quality of design decisions. When stretching the weft-knitted fabrics in the coursewise direction, the configuration of its individual stitches’ changes, as well as the thread’s cross-section due to the force interaction between the adjacent structure elements. To simulate the physical and mechanical behavior of knitwear under the stretching, it is suggested using a complex model of knitwear deformation, that includes the suggested frame model of uniaxial coursewise stretching of knitted fabrics. An algorithm for constructing a frame model of stretching a sample of knitted fabric in the coursewise direction is described in the paper. The algorithm is based on the structure parameters, including the wale spacing and course spacing in a dry relaxed state, the relative elongation of the sample at the time of modeling, number of wales and courses in the sample, the coefficient of courses narrowing. Scientific novelty. The paper investigates the features of the transformation of the knitting structure during stretching in the coursewise direction and offers algorithmic and mathematical support for the automated generation of the mesh frame in the context of three-dimensional modeling, which provides for the possibility of considering the dynamics of deformation of knitted fabric undergoing tensile deformations.Practical value. Frame model of the weft-knits deformation and algorithm of mesh-frame construction suggested in the paper, form the basis for determination of coordinates of characteristic points of the structural elements of the knit in a state of uniaxial tension for construction of a three-dimensional model of thread a deformed knitted fabric.
