spatial frame
1Taylor Spatial Frame — The Taylor Spatial Frame (TSF) is an external fixator and shares a number of components and features of the Ilizarov apparatus The TSF is a hexapod device based on a Stewart platform and was invented by Dr Charles Taylor. The device consists of… …
2Frame of reference — Frame of reference, n. 1. an arbitrary set of spatial coordinates used to describe the position or motion of objects. The coordinates may be fixed or moving; as, a rotating frame of reference. [PJC] 2. a set of assumptions or conditions that are… …
3Frame fields in general relativity — In general relativity, a frame field (also called a tetrad or vierbein) is a set of four orthonormal vector fields, one timelike and three spacelike, defined on a Lorentzian manifold that is physically interpreted as a model of spacetime. The… …
4Spatial anti-aliasing — In digital signal processing, spatial anti aliasing is the technique of minimizing the distortion artifacts known as aliasing when representing a high resolution image at a lower resolution. Anti aliasing is used in digital photography, computer… …
5Objectivity (frame invariance) — The concept of objectivity in science means that qualitative and quantitative descriptions of physical phenomena remain unchanged when the phenomena are observed under a variety of conditions. For example, physical processes (e.g. material… …
6Linguistic frame of reference — is a frame of reference as it is expressed in a language. A frame of reference is a coordinate system used to identify location of an object. In languages different frames of reference can be used. They are: the Relative frame of reference, the… …
7Continuous spatial automaton — Continuous spatial automata, unlike cellular automata, have a continuum of locations. The state of a location is a finite number of real numbers. Time is also continuous, and the state evolves according to differential equations. One important… …
8space frame — Three dimensional truss based on the rigidity of the triangle and composed of linear elements subject only to compression or tension. Its simplest spatial unit is a tetrahedron having four joints and six members. A space frame forms a very strong …
9Ilizarov apparatus — The Ilizarov apparatus is used in a surgical procedure that can be used to lengthen or reshape limb bones. In addition, the procedure is often used to treat complex and/or open bone fractures, where conventional treatment techniques cannot be… …
10Dalibor Vesely — was born in Prague, Czech Republic in 1934. He studied engineering, architecture, art history and philosophy in Prague and in Munich and obtained his PhD from Charles University in Prague. He studied with Hans Georg Gadamer, with whom he kept a… …
