Sentence examples for define an ellipse from inspiring English sources

Engineers define an ellipse in which they can confidently land.

Engineers define an ellipse in which they can confidently put down.

These (Sigma ) elements define an ellipse in a two-dimensional space representing the area where the real feature should be located, given a fixed probability as shown in Fig. 2. Fig. 2 The figures show two generic PDF where we can see that, given a probability, we can find a plane that intercepts the PDF forming an ellipse.

Each harmonic is weighted by four Fourier coefficients (FCs) defining an ellipse in the x, y plane: An, Bn, Cn and Dn.

For positive-definite matrix, A, the equation xTAx = 1 defines an ellipse where the length of each axis from the origin is the inverse square-root of the eigenvalues of A[14].

If e > 1, this equation defines a hyperbola; if e = 1, it defines a parabola; and if e < 1, it defines an ellipse.

Any harmonic corresponds to four coefficients (FC): An and Bn for x, and Cn and Dn for y, defining an ellipse in the xy-plane.

Each harmonic corresponds to four coefficients: two for x, and two for y, defining an ellipse in the xy-plane.

To overcome this, Kik and Piotrowski proposed a method to define an equivalent ellipse for each separate contact zone by setting the ellipse area equal to the non-elliptic contact area and the ellipse semi-axes ratio equal to length to width ratio of the patch.

To this end, a numerical procedure was designed and implemented starting from a discretization of the crack front (defined as an ellipse) and considering a sort of crack advance on the basis of the Paris law, governed by the stress intensity factor (SIF) obtained by Newman and Raju.

Actually, the ellipse is similar: the foci and vertices (or the sum of the distances to the foci, which determines the vertices) are all that is needed to define the ellipse.
