  2. Line integral convolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_integral_convolution

    Texture-based methods, like LIC, avoid these problems since they depict the entire vector field at point-like (pixel) resolution. [ 1 ] Compared to other integration-based techniques that compute field lines of the input vector field, LIC has the advantage that all structural features of the vector field are displayed, without the need to adapt ...

  3. Cremona diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cremona_diagram

    The length of the lines for members 1 and 4 in the diagram, multiplied with the chosen scale factor is the magnitude of the force in members 1 and 4. Now, in the same way the forces in members 2 and 6 can be found for joint C ; force in member 1 (going up/right), force in C going down, force in 2 (going down/left), force in 6 (going up/left ...

  4. Plot (graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plot_(graphics)

    Vector field : Vector field plots (or quiver plots) show the direction and the strength of a vector associated with a 2D or 3D points. They are typically used to show the strength of the gradient over the plane or a surface area. Violin plot : Violin plots are a method of plotting numeric data.

  5. Phase plane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_plane

    The phase plane method refers to graphically determining the existence of limit cycles in the solutions of the differential equation. The solutions to the differential equation are a family of functions. Graphically, this can be plotted in the phase plane like a two-dimensional vector field.

  6. Helmholtz decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helmholtz_decomposition

    The Helmholtz decomposition in three dimensions was first described in 1849 [9] by George Gabriel Stokes for a theory of diffraction. Hermann von Helmholtz published his paper on some hydrodynamic basic equations in 1858, [10] [11] which was part of his research on the Helmholtz's theorems describing the motion of fluid in the vicinity of vortex lines. [11]

  7. Vector calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_calculus

    Vector calculus or vector analysis is a branch of mathematics concerned with the differentiation and integration of vector fields, primarily in three-dimensional Euclidean space, . [1] The term vector calculus is sometimes used as a synonym for the broader subject of multivariable calculus, which spans vector calculus as well as partial differentiation and multiple integration.

  8. Proper orthogonal decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proper_orthogonal...

    The first idea behind the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD), as it was originally formulated in the domain of fluid dynamics to analyze turbulences, is to decompose a random vector field u(x, t) into a set of deterministic spatial functions Φ k (x) modulated by random time coefficients a k (t) so that:

  9. Fundamental vector field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_vector_field

    In the study of mathematics and especially differential geometry, fundamental vector fields are an instrument that describes the infinitesimal behaviour of a smooth Lie group action on a smooth manifold. Such vector fields find important applications in the study of Lie theory, symplectic geometry, and the study of Hamiltonian group actions.
