  2. True-range multilateration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True-range_multilateration

    There is no accepted or widely-used general term for what is termed true-range multilateration here . That name is selected because it: (a) is an accurate description and partially familiar terminology (multilateration is often used in this context); (b) avoids specifying the number of ranges involved (as does, e.g., range-range; (c) avoids implying an application (as do, e.g., DME/DME ...

  3. Sight reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sight_reduction

    The first approach of a compact and concise method was published by R. Doniol in 1955 [4] and involved haversines. The altitude is derived from sin ⁡ ( H c ) = n − a ⋅ ( m + n ) {\displaystyle \sin(Hc)=n-a\cdot (m+n)} , in which n = cos ⁡ ( L a t − D e c ) {\displaystyle n=\cos(Lat-Dec)} , m = cos ⁡ ( L a t + D e c ) {\displaystyle ...

  4. Intercept method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intercept_method

    It was originally called the azimuth intercept method because the process involves drawing a line which intercepts the azimuth line. This name was shortened to intercept method and the intercept distance was shortened to 'intercept'. The method yields a line of position (LOP) on which the observer is situated. The intersection of two or more ...

  5. OpenLB - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenLB

    OpenLB is an object-oriented implementation of the lattice Boltzmann methods (LBM). It is the first implementation of a generic platform for LBM programming, which is shared with the open source community (GPLv2) . [ 2 ]

  6. Lattice Boltzmann methods for solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_Boltzmann_methods...

    The Lattice Boltzmann methods for solids (LBMS) are a set of methods for solving partial differential equations (PDE) in solid mechanics. The methods use a discretization of the Boltzmann equation(BM), and their use is known as the lattice Boltzmann methods for solids. LBMS methods are categorized by their reliance on: Vectorial distributions [1]

  7. Variance reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variance_reduction

    The variance of randomly generated points within a unit square can be reduced through a stratification process. In mathematics, more specifically in the theory of Monte Carlo methods, variance reduction is a procedure used to increase the precision of the estimates obtained for a given simulation or computational effort. [1]

  8. Menter's Shear Stress Transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menter's_Shear_Stress...

    Menter's Shear Stress Transport turbulence model, or SST, is a widely used and robust two-equation eddy-viscosity turbulence model used in Computational Fluid Dynamics.The model combines the k-omega turbulence model and K-epsilon turbulence model such that the k-omega is used in the inner region of the boundary layer and switches to the k-epsilon in the free shear flow.

  9. Stereology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereology

    1975–80 statisticians R.E. Miles and P.J. Davy show that stereology can be formulated as a survey sampling technique, and develop design-based methods. 1983 R.E Miles and (independently) E.B. Jensen and H.J.G. Gundersen develop point-sampled intercept methods for inferring the mean volume of arbitrarily-shaped particles from plane sections.
