  2. Wiggers diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiggers_diagram

    A Wiggers diagram, named after its developer, Carl Wiggers, is a unique diagram that has been used in teaching cardiac physiology for more than a century. [1] [2] In the Wiggers diagram, the X-axis is used to plot time subdivided into the cardiac phases, while the Y-axis typically contains the following on a single grid: Blood pressure. Aortic ...

  3. Cartesian coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system

    Namely, the y-axis is necessarily the perpendicular to the x-axis through the point marked 0 on the x-axis. But there is a choice of which of the two half lines on the perpendicular to designate as positive and which as negative. Each of these two choices determines a different orientation (also called handedness) of the Cartesian plane.

  4. Free body diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_body_diagram

    In physics and engineering, a free body diagram (FBD; also called a force diagram) [1] is a graphical illustration used to visualize the applied forces, moments, and resulting reactions on a free body in a given condition. It depicts a body or connected bodies with all the applied forces and moments, and reactions, which act on the body(ies).

  5. Axis (anatomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axis_(anatomy)

    In anatomy, the axis (from Latin axis, "axle") is the second cervical vertebra (C2) of the spine, immediately inferior to the atlas, upon which the head rests. The spinal cord passes through the axis. The defining feature of the axis is its strong bony protrusion known as the dens, which rises from the superior aspect of the bone.

  6. Semi-log plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semi-log_plot

    The log–linear type of a semi-log graph, defined by a logarithmic scale on the y-axis (vertical), and a linear scale on the x-axis (horizontal). Plotted lines are: y = 10 x (red), y = x (green), y = log(x) (blue). The linear–log type of a semi-log graph, defined by a logarithmic scale on the x axis, and a linear scale on

  7. Ternary plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ternary_plot

    A ternary flammability diagram, showing which mixtures of methane, oxygen gas, and inert nitrogen gas will burn. A ternary plot, ternary graph, triangle plot, simplex plot, or Gibbs triangle is a barycentric plot on three variables which sum to a constant. [1] It graphically depicts the ratios of the three variables as positions in an ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vowel_diagram

    A vowel diagram or vowel chart is a schematic arrangement of the vowels. Depending on the particular language being discussed, it can take the form of a triangle or a quadrilateral. Depending on the particular language being discussed, it can take the form of a triangle or a quadrilateral.
