  2. Lambert's cosine law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambert's_cosine_law

    The number of photons per second emitted into the wedge at angle θ is I cos(θ) dΩ dA. Figure 2 represents what an observer sees. The observer directly above the area element will be seeing the scene through an aperture of area dA 0 and the area element dA will subtend a (solid) angle of d Ω 0 , which is a portion of the observer's total ...

  3. Cofunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cofunction

    These equations are also known as the cofunction identities. [2] [3]This also holds true for the versine (versed sine, ver) and coversine (coversed sine, cvs), the vercosine (versed cosine, vcs) and covercosine (coversed cosine, cvc), the haversine (half-versed sine, hav) and hacoversine (half-coversed sine, hcv), the havercosine (half-versed cosine, hvc) and hacovercosine (half-coversed ...

  4. Lambertian reflectance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambertian_reflectance

    Diagram of Lambertian diffuse reflection. The black arrow shows incident radiance, and the red arrows show the reflected radiant intensity in each direction. When viewed from various angles, the reflected radiant intensity and the apparent area of the surface both vary with the cosine of the viewing angle, so the reflected radiance (intensity per unit area) is the same from all viewing angles.

  5. Cosine similarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosine_similarity

    In data analysis, cosine similarity is a measure of similarity between two non-zero vectors defined in an inner product space.Cosine similarity is the cosine of the angle between the vectors; that is, it is the dot product of the vectors divided by the product of their lengths.

  6. Lode coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lode_Coordinates

    The Lode coordinates are most easily computed using the mechanics invariants.These invariants are a mixture of the invariants of the Cauchy stress tensor, , and the stress deviator, , and are given by [3]

  7. Oren–Nayar reflectance model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oren–Nayar_reflectance_model

    Diagram of surface reflection. The surface roughness model used in the derivation of the Oren-Nayar model is the microfacet model, proposed by Torrance and Sparrow, [2] which assumes the surface to be composed of long symmetric V-cavities.

  8. Intensity (heat transfer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intensity_(heat_transfer)

    In the field of heat transfer, intensity of radiation is a measure of the distribution of radiant heat flux per unit area and solid angle, in a particular direction, defined according to
