A particular aircraft may have different curves even at the same R e and M values, depending for example on whether undercarriage and flaps are deployed. [2] Drag curve for light aircraft. C D0 = 0.017, K = 0.075 and C L0 = 0.1. The tangent gives the maximum L/D point. The accompanying diagram shows C L against C D for a typical light aircraft.
For example, for diagrams of data that vary over a 24-hour cycle, the hourly data is naturally related to its neighbor, and has a cyclic structure, so it can naturally be displayed as a radar chart. [16] [19] [20] One set of guidelines on the use of radar charts (or rather the closely related "polar area graph") is: [20]
The geographic poles are defined by the points on the surface of Earth that are intersected by the axis of rotation. The pole shift hypothesis describes a change in location of these poles with respect to the underlying surface – a phenomenon distinct from the changes in axial orientation with respect to the plane of the ecliptic that are caused by precession and nutation, and is an ...

Wyld diagrams are bookkeeping graphs that correspond to the Navier–Stokes equations via a perturbation expansion of the fundamental continuum mechanics. Similar to the Feynman diagrams in quantum field theory , these diagrams are an extension of Keldysh 's technique for nonequilibrium processes in fluid dynamics.
The NOAA/NASA portion is called the Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS). The first satellite in the program – originally called JPSS-1, but now known as NOAA-20 – was constructed by Ball Aerospace & Technologies Corp. , under a fixed price contract of $248 million with a performance period through Feb. 1, 2015.

Figures 2-5 further illustrate construction of Bode plots. This example with both a pole and a zero shows how to use superposition. To begin, the components are presented separately. Figure 2 shows the Bode magnitude plot for a zero and a low-pass pole, and compares the two with the Bode straight line plots.
NASA initially requested a proposal for extending the GP-B data analysis phase through December 2007. The data analysis phase was further extended to September 2008 using funding from Richard Fairbank, Stanford and NASA, and beyond that point using non-NASA funding only. [6] Final science results were reported in 2011.
