  2. Angular frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_frequency

    A sphere rotating around an axis. Points farther from the axis move faster, satisfying ω = v / r.. In physics, angular frequency (symbol ω), also called angular speed and angular rate, is a scalar measure of the angle rate (the angle per unit time) or the temporal rate of change of the phase argument of a sinusoidal waveform or sine function (for example, in oscillations and waves).

  3. Slide rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slide_rule

    The pocket-sized Hewlett-Packard HP-35 scientific calculator was the first handheld device of its type, but it cost US$395 in 1972. This was justifiable for some engineering professionals, but too expensive for most students. Around 1974, lower-cost handheld electronic scientific calculators started to make slide rules largely obsolete.

  4. Angular velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_velocity

    In physics, angular velocity (symbol ω or , the lowercase Greek letter omega), also known as angular frequency vector, [1] is a pseudovector representation of how the angular position or orientation of an object changes with time, i.e. how quickly an object rotates (spins or revolves) around an axis of rotation and how fast the axis itself changes direction.

  5. CORDIC - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CORDIC

    CORDIC (coordinate rotation digital computer), Volder's algorithm, Digit-by-digit method, Circular CORDIC (Jack E. Volder), [1] [2] Linear CORDIC, Hyperbolic CORDIC (John Stephen Walther), [3] [4] and Generalized Hyperbolic CORDIC (GH CORDIC) (Yuanyong Luo et al.), [5] [6] is a simple and efficient algorithm to calculate trigonometric functions, hyperbolic functions, square roots ...

  6. Sine wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine_wave

    A sine wave, sinusoidal wave, or sinusoid (symbol: ∿) is a periodic wave whose waveform (shape) is the trigonometric sine function. In mechanics, as a linear motion over time, this is simple harmonic motion; as rotation, it corresponds to uniform circular motion.

  7. Slerp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slerp

    Letting θ = t π /2, and applying the trigonometric identity cos θ = sin(π /2 − θ), this becomes the slerp formula. The factor of 1/sin Ω in the general formula is a normalization, since a vector p 1 at an angle of Ω to p 0 projects onto the perpendicular ⊥p 0 with a length of only sin Ω.

  8. Rotation matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_matrix

    In linear algebra, a rotation matrix is a transformation matrix that is used to perform a rotation in Euclidean space.For example, using the convention below, the matrix = [⁡ ⁡ ⁡ ⁡]

  9. Trigonometric interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometric_interpolation

    In mathematics, trigonometric interpolation is interpolation with trigonometric polynomials. Interpolation is the process of finding a function which goes through some given data points . For trigonometric interpolation, this function has to be a trigonometric polynomial, that is, a sum of sines and cosines of given periods.
