    Geometric formulas of linear perspective

    10 years ago i tried (as an artist) to solve the problem of how to translate the 3 dimensional cartesian coordinate onto the 2 dimensional surface with the precise foreshortening. I've only ever figured out 3 formulas for 3 different standpoints... then i gave up. now i recollected my notes, and...

    Fermat's principle of least time and Kepler's second law

    a thanks to ZZ for the hinting forward at H's and L's least action. I'm still trying to understand Lagrange right now. and for the eftaylor.com, and -- the Kepler's law has been formulated already by a principle of least...? what's Marion's first name? much to learn.

    Fermat's principle of least time and Kepler's second law

    While studying the history of classical mechanics I noticed that the primary motor for most of the early equations is the principle of conservation framed firstly as the law of inertia and then as the principle of least time (Fermat) and then as... But while trying to regain for the principle of...

    An effort to solve Zeno's motion Paradoxes

    zeno was not wrong Zeno was not wrong with his paradoxes of motion. These paradoxes are meant to point up the logical flaws inherent in our everyday conception of space, time, and motion which has been quantitatively codified in the classical mechanics. Since this logical flaws have been...
