Examples

“For example, we would tend⟳ to say⟳ that qa is rabatted (rotated) around the axis qd, but notice⟳ that conventional rabatment cannot explain⟳ the position of plane topl, since it should be rabatted around the line ix in the corporea, and instead it has been rotated around a vertical line passing through d.”

“To be able to perform⟳ his constructions on a piece of paper Guidobaldo almost always applied a particular rabatment.”

“Her reconstruction was of the same type⟳, except that the central blue arrow was now above the other two in I and beneath them in II (perfect rabatment, but no rotation).”
