  2. Marching squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marching_squares

    Process each cell in the grid independently. Calculate a cell index using comparisons of the contour level(s) with the data values at the cell corners. Use a pre-built lookup table, keyed on the cell index, to describe the output geometry for the cell. Apply linear interpolation along the boundaries of the cell to calculate the exact contour ...

  3. Slope field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slope_field

    The slope field of =, with the blue, red, and turquoise lines being +, , and , respectively.. A slope field (also called a direction field [1]) is a graphical representation of the solutions to a first-order differential equation [2] of a scalar function.

  4. Scientific visualization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_visualization

    The primary methods for visualizing two-dimensional (2D) scalar fields are color mapping and drawing contour lines. 2D vector fields are visualized using glyphs and streamlines or line integral convolution methods. 2D tensor fields are often resolved to a vector field by using one of the two eigenvectors to represent the tensor each point in ...

  5. Scatter plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scatter_plot

    A scatter plot, also called a scatterplot, scatter graph, scatter chart, scattergram, or scatter diagram, [2] is a type of plot or mathematical diagram using Cartesian coordinates to display values for typically two variables for a set of data. If the points are coded (color/shape/size), one additional variable can be displayed.

  6. Distance from a point to a line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Distance_from_a_point_to_a_line

    Diagram for geometric proof. This proof is valid only if the line is not horizontal or vertical. [5] Drop a perpendicular from the point P with coordinates (x 0, y 0) to the line with equation Ax + By + C = 0. Label the foot of the perpendicular R. Draw the vertical line through P and label its intersection with the given line S.

  7. List of formulas in Riemannian geometry - Wikipedia

    where | g | is the absolute value of the determinant of the matrix of scalar coefficients of the metric tensor . These are useful when dealing with divergences and Laplacians (see below). The covariant derivative of a vector field with components is given by:

  8. Vector calculus identities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_calculus_identities

    In Cartesian coordinates, the divergence of a continuously differentiable vector field = + + is the scalar-valued function: ⁡ = = (, , ) (, , ) = + +.. As the name implies, the divergence is a (local) measure of the degree to which vectors in the field diverge.

  9. Molar volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_volume

    The interest stems from that accurate measurements of the unit cell volume, atomic weight and mass density of a pure crystalline solid provide a direct determination of the Avogadro constant. [3] The CODATA recommended value for the molar volume of silicon is 1.205 883 199 (60) × 10 −5 m 3 ⋅mol −1, with a relative standard uncertainty of ...
