MODELLING A NIEUPORT 11 IN 3D WITH BLENDER by KevJon This is my first tutorial and I thought I would share some of the knowledge I have gained on modelling aircraft in 3D. I’ve decided to do this tutorial with the free Blender software (2.45) so that anybody can have a go at it at without having to outlay lots of cash. The purpose of this tutorial is not to teach you how to use Blender (although I will give plenty of tips) but to show you how I go about modelling aircraft. The techniques I show

(a) Marks Let f ( x ) = x 3 + 5 x 2 + 17 x − 10. The equation f ( x ) = 0 has only one real root. 4 (i) Show that the root lies between 0 and 2. (ii) Use one application of the ‘halving the interval’ method to find a smaller interval containing the root. (iii) Which end of the smaller interval found in part (ii) is closer to the root? Briefly justify your answer. Consider the equation 4 x 3 + 6 x 2 − x − 30 = 0. One of the roots of this equation is equal to the sum of the other two

The Cartesian coordinate system was developed in 1637 by a French mathematician and philosopher Rene Descartes who noticed a fly crawling around on the ceiling. He watched the fly for a long time. He wanted to know how to tell someone else where the fly was. Finally he realized that he could describe the position of the fly by its distance from the walls of the room. When he got out of bed, Descartes wrote down what he had discovered. Then he tried describing the positions of points, the same way he

Emerson’s Unifying Philosophy Throughout human existence, scholars have earnestly pursued knowledge and the attainment of truth. Historical figures such as Plato, Descartes, and Emerson sought answers to daunting questions of: ‘What is truth?’; ‘What is reality?’; ‘How is wisdom acquired?’ Many scholars believe these philosophers presented conflicting viewpoints: Plato encouraging skepticism among all previous historical, cultural, and personal perspectives; Descartes questioning definitions of

lose or give away. When Rene Descartes, one of the founders of the modern-day western philosophical science, laid the groundwork for his epistemological perspective called Cartesian Dualism, he was coming exactly from the same universal idea. The thoughts and hypotheses that Descartes tried so hard, throughout his lifetime’s work, to develop into axioms and prove to be fundamentally true, surprisingly remain highly debatable and are still largely in question. Philosophy is very much about the question

In “The problems of Philosophy” and “Meditations”, Bertrand Russell and Rene Descartes both doubts the ideas of perception and existence. In the book, Descartes built up his ideas by doubting the basic foundation of his knowledge. However, compare to Descartes, Russell focuses more on the object around him, like the rectangular table, rather than himself. In this paper, I will argue if their aim is successful by comparing the differences and similarities between them. My comparison will cover two
