  2. Wave-cut platform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave-cut_platform

    Wave-cut platform at Southerndown, South Wales, UK. A wave-cut platform, shore platform, coastal bench, or wave-cut cliff is the narrow flat area often found at the base of a sea cliff or along the shoreline of a lake, bay, or sea that was created by erosion. Wave-cut platforms are often most obvious at low tide when they become visible as huge ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raised_beach

    Typical sequence of erosional marine terraces. 1) low tide cliff/ramp with deposition, 2) modern shore (wave-cut/abrasion-) platform, 3) notch/inner edge, modern shoreline angle, 4) modern sea cliff, 5) old shore (wave-cut/abrasion-) platform, 6) paleo-shoreline angle, 7) paleo-sea cliff, 8) terrace cover deposits/marine deposits, colluvium, 9) alluvial fan, 10) decayed and covered sea cliff ...

  4. Cliffed coast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cliffed_coast

    On a cliffed coast made up of material which is only fairly or even hardly resistant to erosion no wave-cut platform but a beach is formed in front of the sea cliff. If waves carve notches at a narrow point on both sides of a promontory on the rocky cliffed coast, a natural arch may be formed. [ 4 ]

  5. Dia (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dia_(software)

    Dia has special objects to help draw entity-relationship models, Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagrams, flowcharts, network diagrams, and simple electrical circuits. It is also possible to add support for new shapes by writing simple XML files, using a subset of Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) to draw the shape.

  6. Focal mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Focal_mechanism

    There are several programs available to prepare Focal Mechanism Solutions (FMS). BBC, a MATLAB-based toolbox, is available to prepare the beach ball diagrams. This software plots the first motion polarity data as it arrives at different stations. The compression and dilation are separated using mouse help. A final diagram is prepared ...

  7. List of causal mapping software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../List_of_Causal_Mapping_Software

    This is a list of causal mapping software. Causal mapping software enables users to create and/or work with causal maps: qualitative networks of interconnected nodes in which each connection represents a causal link. Software and services for concept mapping can also be used for causal mapping if they allow the creation of directed links.

  8. Beach cusps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beach_cusps

    In the adjacent diagram, the two waves cancel each other out, creating a flat surface. However, this is a highly simplified version of events. The incoming wave has the same wave period as the edge wave, so the incoming wave changes from a peak to a trough over the same period as it takes the standing wave to change so they keep the same pattern.

  9. LightWave 3D - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LightWave_3D

    LightWave is a software package used for rendering 3D images, both animated and static. It includes a fast rendering engine that supports such advanced features as realistic reflection, radiosity, caustics, and 999 render nodes. The 3D modeling component supports both polygon modeling and subdivision surfaces.
