  2. Wood warping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_warping

    Wood warping is a deviation from flatness in timber as a result of internal residual stress caused by uneven shrinkage. Warping primarily occurs due to uneven expansion or contraction caused by changes in moisture content.

  3. Window (geology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Window_(geology)

    A tectonic window, or fenster (lit. "window" in German), is a geologic structure formed by erosion or normal faulting on a thrust system. In such a system the rock mass ( hanging wall block ) that has been transported by movement along the thrust is called a nappe .

    For example, if standing at a distance so that a normal lens captures someone's face, a shot with a wide-angle lens or telephoto lens from the same distance will have exactly the same linear perspective geometry on the face, though the wide-angle lens may fit the entire body into the shot, while the telephoto lens captures only the nose.

  6. Warping in agriculture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warping_in_agriculture

    Warping was particularly suited to the Humberhead Levels, as the high tides of the rivers Trent and Ouse, when combined with the adjacent low land situation of the fields to be warped, made the practicalities of the process relatively simple. [3] Warping was also carried out in the Somerset Levels from about 1780. [4]

  7. Broken windows theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broken_windows_theory

    Broken windows and vandalism are still prevalent because communities simply do not care about the damage. Regardless of how many times the windows are repaired, the community still must invest some of their time to keep it safe. Residents' negligence of broken window-type decay signifies a lack of concern for the community.

  8. Dynamic time warping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_time_warping

    The windows that classical DTW uses to constrain alignments introduce a step function. Any warping of the path is allowed within the window and none beyond it. In contrast, ADTW employs an additive penalty that is incurred each time that the path is warped. Any amount of warping is allowed, but each warping action incurs a direct penalty.
