    Note that even in this idealized example, in general, we must steer over the 2-D angle-Doppler plane at discrete points to detect potential targets (moving the location of the 2-D sinc main lobe shown in the figure), and do so for each of the range bins in our system. The basic functional diagram is shown to the right.

    A plain scarf joint A nibbed scarf joint A keyed, nibbed scarf, reinforced with fish plates and through bolts The scarf joint used on the beams above the post is known by its French name, trait de jupiter, or bolt-o-lightning joint. A scarf joint, or scarph joint, is a method of joining two members end to end in woodworking or metalworking. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_drawing

    Graphic representation of a minute fraction of the WWW, demonstrating hyperlinks.. Graph drawing is an area of mathematics and computer science combining methods from geometric graph theory and information visualization to derive two-dimensional depictions of graphs arising from applications such as social network analysis, cartography, linguistics, and bioinformatics.

  5. Forest inventory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forest_inventory

    Example of hardware equipment for forest inventories: GPS and laser rangefinder for mapping connected to a field rugged computer. A timber cruise is a sample measurement of a stand used to estimate the amount of standing timber that the forest contains. These measurements are collected at sample locations called plots, quadrants, or strips.

    A secant ogive of sharpness = / = The ogive shape of the Space Shuttle external tank Ogive on a 9×19mm Parabellum cartridge. An ogive (/ ˈ oʊ dʒ aɪ v / OH-jyve) is the roundly tapered end of a two- or three-dimensional object.

  7. Tapering (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    An example of a linear taper is () = +, and a quadratic taper () = + +. As another example, if the parametric equation of a cube were given by ƒ ( t ) = ( x ( t ), y ( t ), z ( t )), a nonlinear taper could be applied so that the cube's volume slowly decreases (or tapers) as the function moves in the positive z direction.

  8. Tree taper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_taper

    Tree taper is the degree to which a tree's stem or bole decreases in diameter as a function of height above ground. Within Forestry and for the purposes of timber production, trees with a high degree of taper are said to have poor form, while those with low taper have good form. The opposite is the case for open-grown amenity trees.

  9. Multitaper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multitaper

    The multitaper method partially obviates these problems by obtaining multiple independent estimates from the same sample. Each data taper is multiplied element-wise by the signal to provide a windowed trial from which one estimates the power at each component frequency. As each taper is pairwise orthogonal to all other tapers, the window ...
