  2. Dimension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimension

    [1] [2] Thus, a line has a dimension of one (1D) because only one coordinate is needed to specify a point on it – for example, the point at 5 on a number line. A surface , such as the boundary of a cylinder or sphere , has a dimension of two (2D) because two coordinates are needed to specify a point on it – for example, both a latitude and ...

  3. Photonic crystal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photonic_crystal

    Band structure of a 1D photonic crystal, DBR air-core calculated using plane wave expansion technique with 101 planewaves, for d/a=0.8, and dielectric contrast of 12.250. The plane wave expansion method can be used to calculate the band structure using an eigen formulation of the Maxwell's equations, and thus solving for the eigen frequencies ...

  4. System-level simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System-level_simulation

    It is common in SLS to use 0D —sometimes 1D— equations to model physical phenomena with space variables, instead of 2D or 3D equations. The reason for such a choice is the size of the simulated systems, which is generally too large (i.e. too many elements and/or too large space extension) for the simulation to be computationally tractable.

  5. Plane (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_(mathematics)

    In mathematics, a plane is a two-dimensional space or flat surface that extends indefinitely. A plane is the two-dimensional analogue of a point (zero dimensions), a line (one dimension) and three-dimensional space.

  6. Types of mesh - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_mesh

    The possible element choices are quadrilateral in 2D and hexahedra in 3D. This model is highly space efficient, since the neighbourhood relationships are defined by storage arrangement. Some other advantages of structured grid over unstructured are better convergence and higher resolution. [3] [4] [5]

  7. Torus interconnect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torus_interconnect

    Communication can take place in four directions, +x, −x, +y, and −y. The total nodes of a 2D Torus is n 2. 3D Torus: three dimensions, the nodes are imagined in a three-dimensional lattice in the shape of a rectangular prism, with each node connected with its six neighbors, with corresponding nodes on opposing faces of the array connected.

  8. Mesh generation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesh_generation

    Mesh faces (cells, entities) have different names depending on their dimension and the context in which the mesh will be used. In finite elements, the highest-dimensional mesh entities are called "elements," "edges" are 1D and "nodes" are 0D. If the elements are 3D, then the 2D entities are "faces."

  9. 3D projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_projection

    A 3D projection (or graphical projection) is a design technique used to display a three-dimensional (3D) object on a two-dimensional (2D) surface. These projections rely on visual perspective and aspect analysis to project a complex object for viewing capability on a simpler plane.
