  2. 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 ...

  3. Sagittal plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sagittal_plane

    The sagittal plane (/ ˈ s æ dʒ ɪ t əl /; also known as the longitudinal plane) is an anatomical plane that divides the body into right and left sections. [1] It is perpendicular to the transverse and coronal planes.

  4. Transverse plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transverse_plane

    The transverse plane (also known as the horizontal plane, axial plane and transaxial plane) is an anatomical plane that divides the body into superior and inferior sections. [1] It is perpendicular to the coronal and sagittal planes.

  5. 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.

  6. Transverse Mercator projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transverse_Mercator_projection

    The spherical form of the transverse Mercator projection was one of the seven new projections presented, in 1772, by Johann Heinrich Lambert. [1] [2] (The text is also available in a modern English translation. [3]) Lambert did not name his projections; the name transverse Mercator dates from the second half of the nineteenth century. [4]

  7. Fly (exercise) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fly_(exercise)

    The main anatomical planes of the human body, including median (red), parasagittal (yellow), frontal or coronal plane (blue) and transverse or axial plane (green).. A fly or flye is a strength training exercise in which the hand and arm move through an arc while the elbow is kept at a constant angle.

  8. Foliation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foliation

    2-dimensional section of Reeb foliation 3-dimensional model of Reeb foliation. In mathematics (differential geometry), a foliation is an equivalence relation on an n-manifold, the equivalence classes being connected, injectively immersed submanifolds, all of the same dimension p, modeled on the decomposition of the real coordinate space R n into the cosets x + R p of the standardly embedded ...

  9. 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.
