Centre (geometry)

In geometry, a centre (or center) (from Greek κέντρον) of an object is a point in some sense in the middle of the object.

Deferent and epicycle

In the Hipparchian and Ptolemaic systems of astronomy, the epicycle (from ἐπίκυκλος, literally upon the circle, meaning circle moving on another circle) was a geometric model used to explain the variations in speed and direction of the apparent motion of the Moon, Sun, and planets.

Distance (graph theory)

In the mathematical field of graph theory, the distance between two vertices in a graph is the number of edges in a shortest path (also called a graph geodesic) connecting them.

Eccentric (mechanism)

In mechanical engineering, an eccentric is a circular disk (eccentric sheave) solidly fixed to a rotating axle with its centre offset from that of the axle (hence the word "eccentric", out of the centre).

Eccentric anomaly

In orbital mechanics, eccentric anomaly is an angular parameter that defines the position of a body that is moving along an elliptic Kepler orbit.

Eccentric Club

The Eccentric Club was the name of several London gentlemen's clubs, the best-known of which existed between 1890 and 1986.

Eccentric training

An eccentric contraction is the motion of an active muscle while it is lengthening under load.

Eccentricity (behavior)

Eccentricity (also called quirkiness) is unusual or odd behavior on the part of an individual.

Eccentricity (mathematics)

In mathematics, the eccentricity, denoted e or \varepsilon, is a parameter associated with every conic section.

Eccentricity vector

In celestial mechanics, the eccentricity vector of a Kepler orbit is the dimensionless vector with direction pointing from apoapsis to periapsis and with magnitude equal to the orbit's scalar eccentricity.

Horizontal eccentricity

Horizontal eccentricity refers to the horizontal axis, measured in degrees, along the visual field.

Orbital eccentricity

The orbital eccentricity of an astronomical object is a parameter that determines the amount by which its orbit around another body deviates from a perfect circle.

New!!: Eccentricity and Orbital eccentricity · See more »

Surveying

Surveying or land surveying is the technique, profession, and science of determining the terrestrial or three-dimensional positions of points and the distances and angles between them.
