  2. Orthogonality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonality

    The line segments AB and CD are orthogonal to each other. In mathematics, orthogonality is the generalization of the geometric notion of perpendicularity.Whereas perpendicular is typically followed by to when relating two lines to one another (e.g., "line A is perpendicular to line B"), [1] orthogonal is commonly used without to (e.g., "orthogonal lines A and B").

  3. Bent's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bent's_rule

    The hybrid can certainly be normalized, as it is the sum of two normalized wavefunctions. Orthogonality must be established so that the two hybrid orbitals can be involved in separate covalent bonds. The inner product of orthogonal orbitals must be zero and computing the inner product of the constructed hybrids gives the following calculation.

  4. Orthogonal coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonal_coordinates

    A conformal map acting on a rectangular grid. Note that the orthogonality of the curved grid is retained. While vector operations and physical laws are normally easiest to derive in Cartesian coordinates, non-Cartesian orthogonal coordinates are often used instead for the solution of various problems, especially boundary value problems, such as those arising in field theories of quantum ...

  5. Procrustes analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procrustes_analysis

    an orthogonal Procrustes problem is a method which can be used to find out the optimal rotation and/or reflection (i.e., the optimal orthogonal linear transformation) for the Procrustes Superimposition (PS) of an object with respect to another.

  6. Concurrent tandem catalysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrent_tandem_catalysis

    Orthogonal tandem catalysis is a "one-pot reaction in which sequential catalytic processes occur through two or more functionally distinct, and preferably non-interfering, catalytic cycles". [7] This technique has been deployed in tandem alkane-dehydrogenation-olefin-metathesis catalysis [ 8 ] [ 9 ]

  7. Matching pursuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matching_pursuit

    A popular extension of Matching Pursuit (MP) is its orthogonal version: Orthogonal Matching Pursuit [14] [15] (OMP). The main difference from MP is that after every step, all the coefficients extracted so far are updated, by computing the orthogonal projection of the signal onto the subspace spanned by the set of atoms selected so far. This can ...

  8. Orthogonal ligand-protein pair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonal_ligand-protein_pair

    Orthogonal ligand-protein pairs (also known as re-engineered ligand-receptor interfaces or re-engineered enzyme-substrate interactions) are a protein-ligand binding pair made to be independent of the original binding pair. This is done by taking a mutant protein (naturally occurring or selectively engineered), which is activated by a different ...

  9. Ring flip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_flip

    As stated above, a chair flip is a ring inversion specifically of cyclohexane (and its derivatives) from one chair conformer to another, often to reduce steric strain.The term, "flip" is misleading, because the direction of each carbon remains the same; what changes is the orientation.
