To resolve the question of a land bridge, Peter the Great sent in 1719 the geodesists Iwan Jewreinow (1694–1724) and Fjodor Luschin (died 1727) to the easternmost reaches of his empire. The expedition was unsuccessful, at least as to the land bridge question. In 1724, Peter gave the same task to another expedition, the First Kamchatka ...
An animated cobweb diagram of the logistic map = (), showing chaotic behaviour for most values of >. A cobweb plot , known also as Lémeray Diagram or Verhulst diagram is a visual tool used in the dynamical systems field of mathematics to investigate the qualitative behaviour of one-dimensional iterated functions , such as the logistic map .
When possible, use tables rather than diagrams to present simple tabular data, and use mathematical markup to produce formulas. Avoid making a diagram or map so dense that it reduces readability or comprehensibility. On the other hand, diagrams should avoid the inclusion of big areas of empty, non-informative space inside the image.
If the map being drawn is a small-scale map (less than 1:500 000 according to Imhof), rules may be relaxed in order to obtain a more suggestive representation. Hachures are still used today on Large Scale maps to show slopes and on British Ordnance Survey Maps and also in various countries toposheets to show Road and Railway Cutting and ...
In modern mapping, a topographic map or topographic sheet is a type of map characterized by large-scale detail and quantitative representation of relief features, usually using contour lines (connecting points of equal elevation), but historically using a variety of methods.
Both the logistic map and the sine map are one-dimensional maps that map the interval [0, 1] to [0, 1] and satisfy the following property, called unimodal . = =. The map is differentiable and there exists a unique critical point c in [0, 1] such that ′ =. In general, if a one-dimensional map with one parameter and one variable is unimodal and ...
Herman Husband (December 3, 1724 – June 19, 1795) was an American farmer, pamphleteer, author, and preacher best known as a leader of the Regulator Movement, a populist rebellion in the Province of North Carolina in the years leading up to the American Revolutionary War.
