  2. Barton's pendulums - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barton's_pendulums

    A schematic diagram of the Barton's pendulums experiment. First demonstrated by Prof Edwin Henry Barton FRS FRSE (1858–1925), Professor of Physics at University College, Nottingham, who had a particular interest in the movement and behavior of spherical bodies, the Barton's pendulums experiment demonstrates the physical phenomenon of resonance and the response of pendulums to vibration at ...

  3. Block-matching algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block-matching_algorithm

    A Block Matching Algorithm is a way of locating matching macroblocks in a sequence of digital video frames for the purposes of motion estimation.The underlying supposition behind motion estimation is that the patterns corresponding to objects and background in a frame of video sequence move within the frame to form corresponding objects on the subsequent frame.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Physics

    The scope of WikiProject Physics is anything on Wikipedia that is related to physics. As of April, 2022, about 24,000 articles have been identified as being physics-related.

  6. Motion History Images - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_History_Images

    The motion history image (MHI) is a static image template helps in understanding the motion location and path as it progresses. [1] In MHI, the temporal motion information is collapsed into a single image template where intensity is a function of recency of motion.

  7. Science project - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_project

    A science project is an educational activity for students involving experiments or construction of models in one of the science disciplines. Students may present their science project at a science fair, so they may also call it a science fair project. Science projects may be classified into four main types.

  8. Motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion

    This motion is the most obscure as it is not physical motion, but rather a change in the very nature of the universe. The primary source of verification of this expansion was provided by Edwin Hubble who demonstrated that all galaxies and distant astronomical objects were moving away from Earth, known as Hubble's law , predicted by a universal ...

  9. Fish locomotion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish_locomotion

    The vector forces exerted on the water by such motion cancel out laterally, but generate a net force backwards which in turn pushes the fish forward through the water. Most fishes generate thrust using lateral movements of their body and caudal fin , but many other species move mainly using their median and paired fins.
