  2. Polar coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_coordinate_system

    The radial coordinate is often denoted by r or ρ, and the angular coordinate by φ, θ, or t. The angular coordinate is specified as φ by ISO standard 31-11. However, in mathematical literature the angle is often denoted by θ instead. Angles in polar notation are generally expressed in either degrees or radians (2 π rad being equal to 360°).

  3. Spherical coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_coordinate_system

    To plot any dot from its spherical coordinates (r, θ, φ), where θ is inclination, the user would: move r units from the origin in the zenith reference direction (z-axis); then rotate by the amount of the azimuth angle (φ) about the origin from the designated azimuth reference direction, (i.e., either the x– or y–axis, see Definition ...

  4. Logistic map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_map

    The sequence behaviour from r=0.02 to r=4, one can visualize the horizontal coordinate as time, and the vertical coordinate either as a position in space at time t or as the population size at time t The animation shows the behaviour of the sequence x n {\displaystyle x_{n}} over different values of the parameter r.

  5. Coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_system

    A coordinate map is essentially a coordinate system for a subset of a given space with the property that each point has exactly one set of coordinates. More precisely, a coordinate map is a homeomorphism from an open subset of a space X to an open subset of R n . [ 15 ]

  6. Ramachandran plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramachandran_plot

    In biochemistry, a Ramachandran plot (also known as a Rama plot, a Ramachandran diagram or a [φ,ψ] plot), originally developed in 1963 by G. N. Ramachandran, C. Ramakrishnan, and V. Sasisekharan, [1] is a way to visualize energetically allowed regions for backbone dihedral angles ( also called as torsional angles , phi and psi angles ) ψ ...

  7. Point plotting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_plotting

    Using point plotting, one associates an ordered pair of real numbers (x, y) with a point in the plane in a one-to-one manner. As a result, one obtains the 2-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system . To be able to plot points, one needs to first decide on a point in plane which will be called the origin , and a couple of perpendicular lines ...

  8. Parallel coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_coordinates

    Parallel Coordinates plots are a common method of visualizing high-dimensional datasets to analyze multivariate data having multiple variables, or attributes. To plot, or visualize, a set of points in n -dimensional space , n parallel lines are drawn over the background representing coordinate axes, typically oriented vertically with equal spacing.

  9. Cartesian coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_coordinate_system

    These coordinates are the signed distances from the point to n mutually perpendicular fixed hyperplanes. Cartesian coordinate system with a circle of radius 2 centered at the origin marked in red. The equation of a circle is (x − a) 2 + (y − b) 2 = r 2 where a and b are the coordinates of the center (a, b) and r is the radius.
