  2. Hasse diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hasse_diagram

    The reason is that, in general, there are many different possible ways to draw a Hasse diagram for a given poset. The simple technique of just starting with the minimal elements of an order and then drawing greater elements incrementally often produces quite poor results: symmetries and internal structure of the order are easily lost.

  3. Compatibility (geochemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compatibility_(geochemistry)

    Compatibility is commonly described by an element's distribution coefficient. A distribution coefficient describes how the solid and liquid phases of an element will distribute themselves in a mineral. Current studies of Earth's rare trace elements seek to quantify and examine the chemical composition of elements in the Earth's crust.

  4. Order theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_theory

    In a partially ordered set there may be some elements that play a special role. The most basic example is given by the least element of a poset. For example, 1 is the least element of the positive integers and the empty set is the least set under the subset order. Formally, an element m is a least element if: m ≤ a, for all elements a of the ...

  5. Cutaway drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutaway_drawing

    A cutaway drawing, also called a cutaway diagram, is a 3D graphics, drawing, diagram and or illustration, in which surface elements of a three-dimensional model are selectively removed, to make internal features visible, but without sacrificing the outer context entirely.

  6. Technical drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_drawing

    A cutaway drawing is a technical illustration, in which part of the surface of a three-dimensional model is removed in order to show some of the model's interior in relation to its exterior. The purpose of a cutaway drawing is to "allow the viewer to have a look into an otherwise solid opaque object.

  7. Engineering drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing

    When part definition is defined mathematically via a solid model, the assertion that one cannot interrogate the model—the direct analog of "scaling the drawing"—becomes ridiculous; because when part definition is defined this way, it is not possible for a drawing or model to be "not to scale". A 2D pencil drawing can be inaccurately ...

  8. Geometric drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_drawing

    The process of geometric drawing is based on constructions with a ruler and compass, which in turn are based on the first three postulates of Euclid's Elements. The historical importance of rulers and compasses as instruments in solving geometric problems leads many authors to limit Geometric Drawing to the representation and solution of ...

  9. Partially ordered set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partially_ordered_set

    A partially ordered set (poset for short) is an ordered pair = (,) consisting of a set (called the ground set of ) and a partial order on . When the meaning is clear from context and there is no ambiguity about the partial order, the set X {\displaystyle X} itself is sometimes called a poset.
