2. Melde's experiment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melde's_experiment

   A string undergoing transverse vibration illustrates many features common to all vibrating acoustic systems, whether these are the vibrations of a guitar string or the standing wave nodes in a studio monitoring room.

3. CT scan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CT_scan

   Multiplanar reconstruction (MPR) is the process of converting data from one anatomical plane (usually transverse) to other planes. It can be used for thin slices as well as projections. Multiplanar reconstruction is possible as present CT scanners provide almost isotropic resolution. [108] MPR is used almost in every scan.

4. Transversality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transversality_(mathematics)

   Transverse curves on the surface of a sphere Non-transverse curves on the surface of a sphere. Two submanifolds of a given finite-dimensional smooth manifold are said to intersect transversally if at every point of intersection, their separate tangent spaces at that point together generate the tangent space of the ambient manifold at that point. [1]

5. Closed kinetic chain exercises - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed_kinetic_chain_exercises

   Closed chain exercises are often compound movements, that generally incur compressive forces, while open-chain exercises are often isolation movements that promote more shearing forces. [ 1 ] CKC exercises involve more than one muscle group and joint simultaneously rather than concentrating solely on one, as many OKC exercises do (single-joint ...

6. Semi-major and semi-minor axes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semi-major_and_semi-minor_axes

   The transverse axis of a hyperbola coincides with the major axis. [ 4 ] In a hyperbola, a conjugate axis or minor axis of length 2 b {\displaystyle 2b} , corresponding to the minor axis of an ellipse, can be drawn perpendicular to the transverse axis or major axis, the latter connecting the two vertices (turning points) of the hyperbola, with ...

7. Intersection number - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_number

   The second potential problem is that even if the intersection is zero-dimensional, it may be non-transverse, for example, if V is a plane curve and W is one of its tangent lines. The first problem requires the machinery of intersection theory, discussed above in detail, which replaces V and W by more convenient subvarieties using the moving lemma.

8. Transverse wave - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transverse_wave

   Transverse waves are contrasted with longitudinal waves, where the oscillations occur in the direction of the wave. The standard example of a longitudinal wave is a sound wave or "pressure wave" in gases, liquids, or solids, whose oscillations cause compression and expansion of the material through which the wave is propagating.

9. Transverse isotropy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transverse_isotropy

   Transverse Isotropy is observed in sedimentary rocks at long wavelengths. Each layer has approximately the same properties in-plane but different properties through-the-thickness. The plane of each layer is the plane of isotropy and the vertical axis is the axis of symmetry.
