  2. Ellipsis (linguistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsis_(linguistics)

    In linguistics, ellipsis (from Ancient Greek ἔλλειψις (élleipsis) 'omission') or an elliptical construction is the omission from a clause of one or more words that are nevertheless understood in the context of the remaining elements. There are numerous distinct types of ellipsis acknowledged in theoretical syntax.

  3. Elliptical distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical_distribution

    In probability and statistics, an elliptical distribution is any member of a broad family of probability distributions that generalize the multivariate normal distribution. Intuitively, in the simplified two and three dimensional case, the joint distribution forms an ellipse and an ellipsoid , respectively, in iso-density plots.

  4. Ellipsoidal coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsoidal_coordinates

    An alternative parametrization exists that closely follows the angular parametrization of spherical coordinates: [1] = ⁡ ⁡, = ⁡ ⁡, = ⁡. Here, > parametrizes the concentric ellipsoids around the origin and [,] and [,] are the usual polar and azimuthal angles of spherical coordinates, respectively.

  5. Modularity theorem - Wikipedia

    The modularity theorem implies a closely related analytic statement: To each elliptic curve E over we may attach a corresponding L-series.The L-series is a Dirichlet series, commonly written

  6. Noun ellipsis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noun_ellipsis

    Noun ellipsis (N-ellipsis), also noun phrase ellipsis (NPE), is a mechanism that elides, or appears to elide, part of a noun phrase that can be recovered from context. The mechanism occurs in many languages like English, which uses it less than related languages.

  7. Bohr–Sommerfeld model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohr–Sommerfeld_model

    The Bohr–Sommerfeld model (also known as the Sommerfeld model or Bohr–Sommerfeld theory) was an extension of the Bohr model to allow elliptical orbits of electrons around an atomic nucleus. Bohr–Sommerfeld theory is named after Danish physicist Niels Bohr and German physicist Arnold Sommerfeld .

  8. Bridge management system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge_management_system

    Data management in this phase implies the use of geographic information systems, BIM and computer-aided design software, manipulating both 2D and 3D geo-referenced data. Resulting products include point clouds and meshes that serves as the basis for building information modeling processes. Bridge surveys can be repeated in different steps of ...

  9. Ellipsograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsograph

    The motion of the rod is termed elliptical motion. The semi-axes a and b of the ellipses have lengths equal to the distances from the point on the rod to each of the two pivots. The straight lines described by the pivots are special cases of an ellipse, where the length of one axis is twice the distance between the pivots and that of the other ...
