The Tropicana – Las Vegas Boulevard intersection is a major intersection on the Las Vegas Strip ( Tropicana Avenue and Las Vegas Boulevard) in Paradise, Nevada, United States, and is noteworthy for several reasons. It was the first intersection in Las Vegas completely closed to street level pedestrian traffic and its four corners are ...
In analytic geometry, a line and a sphere can intersect in three ways: Intersection in two points. Methods for distinguishing these cases, and determining the coordinates for the points in the latter cases, are useful in a number of circumstances. For example, it is a common calculation to perform during ray tracing.
Intersection is the 20th and final album by singer-songwriter Nanci Griffith. It was released on 20 February 2012 on Proper Records /Hell No label. The album was recorded in her own home studio in Nashville and includes 12 tracks including five covers. This was Griffith’s last studio album before her retirement from the music business in 2013 ...
The Möller–Trumbore ray-triangle intersection algorithm, named after its inventors Tomas Möller and Ben Trumbore, is a fast method for calculating the intersection of a ray and a triangle in three dimensions without needing precomputation of the plane equation of the plane containing the triangle. [1] Among other uses, it can be used in ...
Pedestrian scramble. One of the world's most heavily used pedestrian scrambles, the Shibuya Crossing at Hachikō Square in Tokyo. A pedestrian scramble (or exclusive pedestrian interval) is a type of traffic signal movement that temporarily stops all vehicular traffic, thereby allowing pedestrians to cross an intersection in every direction ...
Intersection form of a 4-manifold. In mathematics, the intersection form of an oriented compact 4-manifold is a special symmetric bilinear form on the 2nd (co)homology group of the 4-manifold. It reflects much of the topology of the 4-manifolds, including information on the existence of a smooth structure .
Position resection and intersection. Position resection and intersection are methods for determining an unknown geographic position ( position finding) by measuring angles with respect to known positions. In resection, the one point with unknown coordinates is occupied and sightings are taken to the known points; in intersection, the two points ...
