    The directional figure eight (a.k.a. inline figure-eight loop) is a loop knot. It is a knot that can be made on the bight. The loop must only be loaded in the correct direction or the knot may fail. It is useful on a hauling line to create loops that can be used as handholds.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Story_structure

    Story structure is a way to organize the story's elements into a recognizable sequence. It has been shown to influence how the brain organizes information. [2] Story structures can vary culture to culture and throughout history. The same named story structure may also change over time as the culture also changes.

    In it he outlines the following plot elements and ties it to a drawing, [59] following Whitcomb's prescriptions: Incident, emotion, crisis, suspense, climax, dénouement, conclusion. He does not make an accompanying diagram with any of these elements, but does argue that the line of emotion is important to stories on page 198.

By convention, story plots are written in the narrative present—that is, in the present tense, matching the way that the story is experienced. [2] If it makes the plot easier to explain, events can be reordered. [3]

    Nichols plot of the transfer function 1/s(1+s)(1+2s) along with the modified M and N circles. To use the Hall circles, a plot of M and N circles is done over the Nyquist plot of the open-loop transfer function. The points of the intersection between these graphics give the corresponding value of the closed-loop transfer function.

  9. Petal projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petal_projection

    A petal projection is a description of a knot as a special kind of knot diagram, a two-dimensional self-crossing curve formed by projecting the knot from three dimensions down to a plane. In a petal projection, this diagram has only one crossing point, forming a topological rose. Every two branches of the curve that pass through this point ...
