  2. Fold (geology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fold_(geology)

    Ramsay has proposed a classification scheme for folds that often is used to describe folds in profile based upon the curvature of the inner and outer lines of a fold and the behavior of dip isogons. that is, lines connecting points of equal dip on adjacent folded surfaces: [8]

  3. 3D fold evolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_Fold_Evolution

    The evolution depends on fold kinematics, [1] Fold mechanism, [2] [3] as well as a reporting of the history behind folds and relationships by which fold age is understood. [4] There are several ways to reconstruct the evolution progress of folds, notably by using depositional evidence, geomorphological evidence and balanced restoration .

    John Graham Ramsay CBE FRS [1] (17 June 1931 – 12 January 2021) was a British structural geologist who was a professor at Imperial College London, the University of Leeds and the University of Zurich.

  5. Types of periodic tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_periodic_tables

    1915 — William Ramsay, in his book The Gases of The Atmosphere, included a periodic table with a fold (or flap) that can be moved from page 220 to 221. [87] [88] 1950 — McCutchon published a short table in which the d- and f-blocks were depicted as folding flaps positioned on top of the s- and p-blocks. [85] 2015 — Quantum Fold Periodic ...

  6. Periodic table of topological insulators and topological ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table_of...

    The topological insulators and superconductors are classified here in ten symmetry classes (A,AII,AI,BDI,D,DIII,AII,CII,C,CI) named after Altland–Zirnbauer classification, defined here by the properties of the system with respect to three operators: the time-reversal operator , charge conjugation and chiral symmetry . The symmetry classes are ...

  7. Classification of manifolds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classification_of_manifolds

    Analogously to the classification of manifolds, in high codimension (meaning more than 2), embeddings are classified by surgery, while in low codimension or in relative dimension, they are rigid and geometric, and in the middle (codimension 2), one has a difficult exotic theory (knot theory).

  8. Quintic threefold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quintic_threefold

    One of the easiest examples to check of a Calabi-Yau manifold is given by the Fermat quintic threefold, which is defined by the vanishing locus of the polynomial = + + + + Computing the partial derivatives of gives the four polynomials = = = = = Since the only points where they vanish is given by the coordinate axes in , the vanishing locus is empty since [::::] is not a point in .

  9. Rossmann fold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rossmann_fold

    The Rossmann fold is a tertiary fold found in proteins that bind nucleotides, such as enzyme cofactors FAD, NAD +, and NADP +.This fold is composed of alternating beta strands and alpha helical segments where the beta strands are hydrogen bonded to each other forming an extended beta sheet and the alpha helices surround both faces of the sheet to produce a three-layered sandwich.
