  2. Stadia mark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stadia_mark

    For example, a typical stadia mark pair are set so that the ratio is 100. If one observes a vertical length on a stadia rod, rule or levelling rod with the telescope and sees that the rod spans 0.500 m between the marks (the stadia interval), then the horizontal distance from the instrument to the rod is: 0.500m x 100 = 50 m.

  6. Moiré pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moiré_pattern

    Consider two patterns made of parallel and equidistant lines, e.g., vertical lines. The step of the first pattern is p, the step of the second is p + δp, with 0 < δp < p. If the lines of the patterns are superimposed at the left of the figure, the shift between the lines increases when going to the right.

  7. Shear mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_mapping

    The vertical shear displaces points to the right of the y-axis up or down, depending on the sign of m. It leaves vertical lines invariant, but tilts all other lines about the point where they meet the y-axis. Horizontal lines, in particular, get tilted by the shear angle to become lines with slope m.

    The two bars. The two bars can be placed tight together (condensed) or far apart. They can be symmetrically spaced either around the middle, or above or below the middle. One asymmetrical variation has one bar near the top and the other just below the middle. Finally the bars can be of equal length, or with one shorter than the other.
