  2. Similarity (geometry) - Wikipedia

    The relationship holds for figures that are not rectifiable as well. The ratio between the volumes of similar figures is equal to the cube of the ratio of corresponding lengths of those figures (for example, when the edge of a cube or the radius of a sphere is multiplied by three, its volume is multiplied by 27 — i.e. by three cubed).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parable_of_the_Polygons

    The goal of Parable of the Polygons was for readers to "learn to demand diversity". [5] People are represented by abstract shapes because marking their races and genders would be "really weird" and "have the unfortunate implication that [the races and genders] are binary and immutable". [7] A triangle was chosen because it appears in Hart's ...

    When visual elements are seen moving in the same direction at the same rate (optical flow), perception associates the movement as part of the same stimulus. For example, birds may be distinguished from their background as a single flock because they are moving in the same direction and at the same velocity, even when each bird is seen—from a ...

  7. Self-similarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-similarity

    In mathematics, a self-similar object is exactly or approximately similar to a part of itself (i.e., the whole has the same shape as one or more of the parts). Many objects in the real world, such as coastlines , are statistically self-similar: parts of them show the same statistical properties at many scales. [ 2 ]

    move to sidebar hide From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In fluid mechanics , dynamic similarity is the phenomenon that when there are two geometrically similar vessels (same shape, different sizes) with the same boundary conditions (e.g., no-slip, center-line velocity) and the same Reynolds and Womersley numbers , then the fluid flows will ...

  9. Similarity (philosophy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Similarity_(philosophy)

    Similarity comes in degrees: e.g. oranges are more similar to apples than to the moon. It is traditionally seen as an internal relation and analyzed in terms of shared properties: two things are similar because they have a property in common. [1] The more properties they share, the more similar they are.
