  2. True-range multilateration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True-range_multilateration

    There is no accepted or widely-used general term for what is termed true-range multilateration here . That name is selected because it: (a) is an accurate description and partially familiar terminology (multilateration is often used in this context); (b) avoids specifying the number of ranges involved (as does, e.g., range-range; (c) avoids implying an application (as do, e.g., DME/DME ...

  3. OpenLB - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenLB

    Automated grid generation [6] is one of the great advantages of OpenLB over other CFD software packages. The main advantages are listed below: The main advantages are listed below: Use of geometries in the STL file format or geometrically primitive forms (e.g. ball, cylinder, cone) and their union, intersection and difference

  4. Sight reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sight_reduction

    In astronavigation, sight reduction is the process of deriving from a sight (in celestial navigation usually obtained using a sextant) the information needed for establishing a line of position, generally by intercept method.

  5. Intercept method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intercept_method

    It was originally called the azimuth intercept method because the process involves drawing a line which intercepts the azimuth line. This name was shortened to intercept method and the intercept distance was shortened to 'intercept'. The method yields a line of position (LOP) on which the observer is situated. The intersection of two or more ...

  6. Stereology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereology

    1975–80 statisticians R.E. Miles and P.J. Davy show that stereology can be formulated as a survey sampling technique, and develop design-based methods. 1983 R.E Miles and (independently) E.B. Jensen and H.J.G. Gundersen develop point-sampled intercept methods for inferring the mean volume of arbitrarily-shaped particles from plane sections.

  7. Newmark-beta method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newmark-beta_method

    The Newmark-beta method is a method of numerical integration used to solve certain differential equations.It is widely used in numerical evaluation of the dynamic response of structures and solids such as in finite element analysis to model dynamic systems.

  8. Linear function (calculus) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_function_(calculus)

    The y-intercept point (,) = (,) corresponds to buying only 4 kg of sausage; while the x-intercept point (,) = (,) corresponds to buying only 2 kg of salami. Note that the graph includes points with negative values of x or y , which have no meaning in terms of the original variables (unless we imagine selling meat to the butcher).

  9. MacCormack method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacCormack_method

    In computational fluid dynamics, the MacCormack method (/məˈkɔːrmæk ˈmɛθəd/) is a widely used discretization scheme for the numerical solution of hyperbolic partial differential equations. This second-order finite difference method was introduced by Robert W. MacCormack in 1969. [ 1 ]
