  2. Barycentric coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barycentric_coordinate_system

    A 3-simplex, with barycentric subdivisions of 1-faces (edges) 2-faces (triangles) and 3-faces (body). In geometry , a barycentric coordinate system is a coordinate system in which the location of a point is specified by reference to a simplex (a triangle for points in a plane , a tetrahedron for points in three-dimensional space , etc.).

  3. Barycenter (astronomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barycenter_(astronomy)

    m 2 is the mass of the secondary in Earth masses (M E) a (km) is the average orbital distance between the centers of the two bodies; r 1 (km) is the distance from the center of the primary to the barycenter; R 1 (km) is the radius of the primary ⁠ r 1 / R 1 ⁠ a value less than one means the barycenter lies inside the primary

  4. Two-body problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-body_problem

    [2] Let x 1 and x 2 be the vector positions of the two bodies, and m 1 and m 2 be their masses. The goal is to determine the trajectories x 1 (t) and x 2 (t) for all times t, given the initial positions x 1 (t = 0) and x 2 (t = 0) and the initial velocities v 1 (t = 0) and v 2 (t = 0). When applied to the two masses, Newton's second law states that

    It was originally known as "HECKE and Manin". After a short while it was renamed SAGE, which stands for ‘’Software of Algebra and Geometry Experimentation’’. Sage 0.1 was released in 2005 and almost a year later Sage 1.0 was released. It already consisted of Pari, GAP, Singular and Maxima with an interface that rivals that of Mathematica.

  6. Barycentric subdivision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barycentric_subdivision

    Iterate 1 to 4 barycentric subdivisions of 2-simplices. In mathematics, the barycentric subdivision is a standard way to subdivide a given simplex into smaller ones. Its extension to simplicial complexes is a canonical method to refining them. Therefore, the barycentric subdivision is an important tool in algebraic topology.

    The first edition came out in 1952; Calculus and Analytic Geometry became one of the most famous and widely used texts on the subject. For many of the later editions (from the 5th onwards), Thomas was assisted by co-author Ross L. Finney, which gave rise to the text's metonym Thomas & Finney; such was its ubiquity in calculus teaching.

    Its center of coordinates as the center of mass of the entire Solar System, its barycenter. It was created in 2000 by the International Astronomical Union (IAU) to be the global standard reference system for objects located outside the gravitational vicinity of Earth : [ 1 ] planets, moons, and other Solar System bodies, stars and other objects ...

  9. Elementary Calculus: An Infinitesimal Approach - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_Calculus:_An...

    Elementary Calculus: An Infinitesimal approach is a textbook by H. Jerome Keisler. The subtitle alludes to the infinitesimal numbers of the hyperreal number system of Abraham Robinson and is sometimes given as An approach using infinitesimals. The book is available freely online and is currently published by Dover. [1]
