  2. Multivariate map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multivariate_map

    An 1858 multivariate map by Charles Joseph Minard, using a nominal choropleth to represent departments that supplied meat to be consumed in Paris, proportional circles to represent significant volumes of that meat, combined with pie charts dividing it into relative proportions of beef (black), veal (red), and mutton (green).

  3. Logarithmic spiral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_spiral

    The approach of an insect to a light source. They are used to having the light source at a constant angle to their flight path. Usually the Sun (or Moon for nocturnal species) is the only light source and flying that way will result in a practically straight line. [8] In the same token, a rhumb line approximates a logarithmic spiral close to a ...

  4. Proportional symbol map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proportional_symbol_map

    A proportional symbol map or proportional point symbol map is a type of thematic map that uses map symbols that vary in size to represent a quantitative variable. [1]: 131 For example, circles may be used to show the location of cities within the map, with the size of each circle sized proportionally to the population of the city. Typically ...

    Symmetry breaking in pitchfork bifurcation as the parameter ε is varied. ε = 0 is the case of symmetric pitchfork bifurcation.. In a dynamical system such as ¨ + (;) + =, which is structurally stable when , if a bifurcation diagram is plotted, treating as the bifurcation parameter, but for different values of , the case = is the symmetric pitchfork bifurcation.

    Sailing the original and iconic route of the Hurtigruten (literally "The Fast Route"), Hurtigruten AS stops at 34 ports from the southern city of Bergen and the northeastern city of Kirkenes. A daily passenger ferry, cruise, and shipping line along the western and northern Norwegian coast. [2] A total of 8 ships operate the route.

    For <, spiral-ring pattern; =, regular spiral; >, loose spiral. R is the distance of spiral starting point (0, R) to the center. R is the distance of spiral starting point (0, R) to the center. The calculated x and y have to be rotated backward by ( − θ {\displaystyle -\theta } ) for plotting.

    where A 1 and A 2 are the centers of the two circles and r 1 and r 2 are their radii. The power of a point arises in the special case that one of the radii is zero. If the two circles are orthogonal, the Darboux product vanishes. If the two circles intersect, then their Darboux product is ⁡
