  2. Transversality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transversality_(mathematics)

    Transverse curves on the surface of a sphere Non-transverse curves on the surface of a sphere. Two submanifolds of a given finite-dimensional smooth manifold are said to intersect transversally if at every point of intersection, their separate tangent spaces at that point together generate the tangent space of the ambient manifold at that point. [1]

  3. Closed kinetic chain exercises - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed_kinetic_chain_exercises

    Closed chain exercises are often compound movements, that generally incur compressive forces, while open-chain exercises are often isolation movements that promote more shearing forces. [ 1 ] CKC exercises involve more than one muscle group and joint simultaneously rather than concentrating solely on one, as many OKC exercises do (single-joint ...

    = Transverse Mollweide: Pseudocylindrical Equal-area John Bartholomew Oblique version of Mollweide 1953 Bertin = Bertin-Rivière = Bertin 1953: Other Compromise Jacques Bertin Projection in which the compromise is no longer homogeneous but instead is modified for a larger deformation of the oceans, to achieve lesser deformation of the continents.

  5. Sagittal plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sagittal_plane

    The sagittal plane (/ ˈ s æ dʒ ɪ t əl /; also known as the longitudinal plane) is an anatomical plane that divides the body into right and left sections. [1] It is perpendicular to the transverse and coronal planes.

  6. Intersection number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersection_number

    The second potential problem is that even if the intersection is zero-dimensional, it may be non-transverse, for example, if V is a plane curve and W is one of its tangent lines. The first problem requires the machinery of intersection theory, discussed above in detail, which replaces V and W by more convenient subvarieties using the moving lemma.

  7. Fly (exercise) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fly_(exercise)

    The main anatomical planes of the human body, including median (red), parasagittal (yellow), frontal or coronal plane (blue) and transverse or axial plane (green). A fly or flye is a strength training exercise in which the hand and arm move through an arc while the elbow is kept at a constant angle.

  8. Transverse knot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transverse_knot

    In mathematics, a transverse knot is a smooth embedding of a circle into a three-dimensional contact manifold such that the tangent vector at every point of the knot is transverse to the contact plane at that point. Any Legendrian knot can be C 0-perturbed in a direction

  9. Coronal plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronal_plane

    The coronal plane is an example of a longitudinal plane.For a human, the mid-coronal plane would transect a standing body into two halves (front and back, or anterior and posterior) in an imaginary line that cuts through both shoulders.
