Eq(5) is a linear function that approximates, e.g., a curve in two dimensions (p=1) by a tangent line at a point on that curve, or in three dimensions (p=2) it approximates a surface by a tangent plane at a point on that surface. The idea is that the total change in z in the near vicinity of a specific point is found from Eq(5). In practice ...
A schematic depiction of the force balance in a gas disk around a central object, e.g., a star. For a disk of gas around a condensed central object, such as, for example, a protostar, one can derive a disk scale height which is somewhat analogous to the planetary scale height.
The first location of interest is the critical point labeled with y c and M c in Figure 6. The critical point represents the minimum value of the momentum function available for that particular flow per unit width, q. An increase in q would cause the M function to move to the right and slightly up, giving the flow access to more momentum at its ...
The Gaussian quadrature chooses more suitable points instead, so even a linear function approximates the function better (the black dashed line). As the integrand is the third-degree polynomial y(x) = 7x 3 – 8x 2 – 3x + 3, the 2-point Gaussian quadrature rule even returns an exact result.
The second step is discretization, where the weak form is discretized in a finite-dimensional space. After this second step, we have concrete formulae for a large but finite-dimensional linear problem whose solution will approximately solve the original BVP. This finite-dimensional problem is then implemented on a computer.
The 9HP is only 0.24 inches (6 mm) longer than, and weighs 16.5 lbs (7.5 kg) less than, the outgoing six-speed transmission. The compact packaging is achieved by using a number of innovative design features: a new compact hydraulic vane-type pump, two patented dog clutches, [3] which replace bulkier conventional clutch packs, and a nested gear set.

A standard rate turn is defined as a 3° per second turn, which completes a 360° turn in 2 minutes. This is known as a 2-minute turn, or rate one (180°/min). Fast airplanes, or aircraft on certain precision approaches, use a half standard rate ('rate half' in some countries), but the definition of standard rate does not change.
