  2. Waveform graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waveform_graphics

    Text and graphics could be mixed, and there were additional tools for drawing axes and markers. The waveform graphics system was used only for a short period of time before it was replaced by the more sophisticated ReGIS system, first introduced on the VT125 in 1981. [1] ReGIS allowed the construction of arbitrary vectors and other shapes.

  3. Scientific visualization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_visualization

    A scientific visualization of a simulation of a Rayleigh–Taylor instability caused by two mixing fluids. [1] Surface rendering of Arabidopsis thaliana pollen grains with confocal microscope. Scientific visualization (also spelled scientific visualisation) is an interdisciplinary branch of science concerned with the visualization of scientific ...

  4. Surface wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_wave

    This radiative ground wave is known as Norton surface wave, or more properly Norton ground wave, because ground waves in radio propagation are not confined to the surface. Another type of surface wave is the non-radiative, bound-mode Zenneck surface wave or Zenneck–Sommerfeld surface wave .

  5. Geometric primitive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_primitive

    In GIS, the terrain surface is often spoken of colloquially as "2 1/2 dimensional," because only the upper surface needs to be represented. Thus, elevation can be conceptualized as a scalar field property or function of two-dimensional space, affording it a number of data modeling efficiencies over true 3-dimensional objects.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEC_μPD7220

    The chip was first used in the NEC N5200 and in later computers, such as the NEC PC-9801, APC II and APC III, the NECcomputer, the optional graphics module for the DEC Rainbow, the NCR Decision Mate V, the Tulip System-1, and the Epson QX-10. [1] The μPD7220 was one of the first implementations of a graphics display processor as a single Large ...

    It was soon followed by the IRIS 1200, another terminal with a larger backplane, [1] before the IRIS 1400 emerged as SGCS's first standalone workstation in 1984. [2] The processor used in these early systems, the 'PM1', was a variant of the SUN (Stanford UNiversity) processor, and sported a Motorola 68000 (or 68010) clocked at 8 MHz. With the ...

    According to the author, almost 1/4 of all published images of 3D protein structures in the scientific literature were made via PyMOL.

  9. Dyakonov surface wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyakonov_surface_wave

    A widespread experimental investigation of DSW material systems and evolution of related practical devices has been largely limited by the stringent anisotropy conditions necessary for successful DSW propagation, particularly the high degree of birefringence of at least one of the constituent materials and the limited number of naturally available materials fulfilling this requirement.
