  2. Hodograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hodograph

    A hodograph is a diagram that gives a vectorial visual representation of the movement of a body or a fluid. It is the locus of one end of a variable vector, with the other end fixed. [1] The position of any plotted data on such a diagram is proportional to the velocity of the moving particle. [2] It is also called a velocity diagram.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_polar

    Shock polar in the pressure ratio-flow deflection angle plane for a Mach number of 1.8 and a specific heat ratio 1.4. The minimum angle, , which an oblique shock can have is the Mach angle = ⁡ (/), where is the initial Mach number before the shock and the greatest angle corresponds to a normal shock.

    On the momentum hodograph in the relevant section above, B is readily seen to connect the origin of momenta with the center of the circular hodograph, and to possess magnitude A/L. At perihelion, it points in the direction of the momentum. The vector B is denoted as "binormal" since it is perpendicular to both A and L. Similar to the LRL vector ...
