  2. Cross-cutting relationships - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-cutting_relationships

    Cross-cutting relationships can be used to determine the relative ages of rock strata and other structures. Explanations: A – folded rock strata cut by a thrust fault; B – large intrusion (cutting through A); C – erosional angular unconformity (cutting off A & B) on which rock strata were deposited; D – volcanic dike (cutting through A, B & C); E – even younger rock strata (overlying ...

  3. Cross-cutting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-cutting

    Mrinal Sen has used cross-cutting effectively in his agit-prop film Interview, which achieved significant commercial success. Christopher Nolan uses cross-cutting extensively in films such as Interstellar, The Dark Knight and Inception - particularly in the latter, in which sequences depict multiple simultaneous levels of consciousness.

  4. Relative dating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_dating

    The principle of cross-cutting relationships pertains to the formation of faults and the age of the sequences through which they cut. Faults are younger than the rocks they cut; accordingly, if a fault is found that penetrates some formations but not those on top of it, then the formations that were cut are older than the fault, and the ones ...

    Cut An editorial transition signified by the immediate replacement of one shot with another. Cross-cutting Cutting between different events occurring simultaneously in different locations. Especially in narrative filmmaking, cross-cutting is traditionally used to build suspense or to suggest a thematic relationship between two sets of actions.

  6. Shot/reverse shot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shot/reverse_shot

    Shot/reverse shot (or shot/countershot) is a film technique where one character is shown looking at another character (often off-screen), and then the other character is shown looking back at the first character (a reverse shot or countershot).

  7. Cross-cutting concern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-cutting_concern

    Cross-cutting concerns can be directly responsible for tangling, or system inter-dependencies, within a program. Because procedural and functional language constructs consist entirely of procedure calling, there is no semantic through which two goals (the capability to be implemented and the related cross-cutting concern) can be addressed ...

  8. Law of superposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_superposition

    The law of superposition is an axiom that forms one of the bases of the sciences of geology, archaeology, and other fields pertaining to geological stratigraphy.In its plainest form, it states that in undeformed stratigraphic sequences, the oldest strata will lie at the bottom of the sequence, while newer material stacks upon the surface to form new deposits over time.

  9. Lazy caterer's sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_caterer's_sequence

    The maximum number of pieces from consecutive cuts are the numbers in the Lazy Caterer's Sequence. When a circle is cut n times to produce the maximum number of pieces, represented as p = f (n), the n th cut must be considered; the number of pieces before the last cut is f (n − 1), while the number of pieces added by the last cut is n.
