  2. 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 .

  3. Wood warping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_warping

    The types of wood warping include: bow: a warp along the length of the face of the wood; crook: a warp along the length of the edge of the wood; kink: a localized crook, often due to a knot; cup: a warp across the width of the face, in which the edges are higher or lower than the center of the wood

  4. 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.

  5. Randall–Sundrum model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randall–Sundrum_model

    The RS1 model attempts to address the hierarchy problem. The warping of the extra dimension is analogous to the warping of spacetime in the vicinity of a massive object, such as a black hole. This warping, or red-shifting, generates a large ratio of energy scales, so that the natural energy scale at one end of the extra dimension is much larger ...

  6. Slab window - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slab_window

    Diagram of a cross-section of the Patagonia slab window. The Nazca plate and Antarctic plate are colliding with the South American plate at the Chile Ridge. [1]In geology, a slab window is a gap that forms in a subducted oceanic plate when a mid-ocean ridge meets with a subduction zone and plate divergence at the ridge and convergence at the subduction zone continue, causing the ridge to be ...

  7. Ames window - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ames_window

    Ames window. The Ames trapezoid or Ames window is an image on, for example, a flat piece of cardboard that seems to be a rectangular window but is, in fact, a trapezoid.Both sides of the piece of cardboard have the same image.

  8. Bimoment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bimoment

    Bimoment (aka warping moment) [1] is a term used in the analysis of beams (continuum mechanics) that relates to torsion and warping.Its symbol is Mω. [2]Bimoment show the distributions at a cross-section of (longitudinal) warping stress in cases of torsional warping and distortional warping, respectively. [3]

  9. Image geometry correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_geometry_correction

    The simplest application of image geometry correction is a specific case known as keystone distortion correction derived from Keystone effect.Keystone distortion gets its name from the symmetric trapezoidal distortion resulting from misaligned projector placement in the vertical dimension (although the term is generally applied to the non-symmetric quadrilateral shape that occurs from an off ...
