The Generic Mapping Tools and Animations for the Masses
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 25, Issue 6, June 2024.Abstract Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) is a well‐known set of software originally developed for geosciences, allowing scientists in climate and solid earth disciplines to routinely create publish‐ready maps and graphics. However, GMT users rarely make animations despite their undeniable benefit for understanding and teaching dynamic processes. As reading

THE SPIRALS ON THE OBLATE AND PROLATE SPHEROIDS OF LORENTZ-MINKOWSKI 3− SPACE R13 [PDF]
, 2023 Spirials are differentiable curves that meet all meridians of a rotational surface at a constant angle. In this study, we obtain differential equations of all spirals on hyperbolic oblate and Lorentzian prolate spheroids.

Renaissance Studies, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 185-205, April 2024.Abstract This article gives a detailed description and analysis of Robert Burton's copy of Theatrum urbium italicarum, a Venetian ‘city‐atlas’ produced in 1599 by the engraver and publisher Pietro Bertelli. Burton's copy of the book is especially noteworthy because it has had a number of the maps removed.

THE LOGARITHMIC SPIRAL AND ITS SPHERICAL COUNTERPART
Journal of Industrial Design and Engineering Graphics, 2019 Logarithmic spirals are isogonal trajectories of pencils of lines. From a series of geometric consequences, we pick out a few which are relevant for kinematics: When a logarithmic spiral rolls on a line, its asymptotic point traces a straight line. Hence,

DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION OF A LOXODROME ON THE SPHEROID [PDF]
, 2007 A deeper insight into the principles of navigation leads to the understanding of spheroid models, elliptic integrals etc. Thanks to sophisticated modern math software, these problems can easily be solved complying with navigational practise. In addition,

Spiraling Out Of Disorder: Investigating The Behavior Of Nematic Liquid Crystalline Systems And Soft Vortex Matter Under Geometrical Confinement [PDF]
, 2021 Self-assembly of ordered phases can be exploited to design new functional materials. Such structures can be heavily influenced by the confining geometry, which may be incommensurate with the ordering of the phase.

Absolute polarity on the sphere; conics; loxodrome, tractrix [PDF]
, 1999 Elements in the bundle and on the sphere, distance, angle and absolute polarity are explained. The spherical conic has an absolute polar conic, they are equidistant to each other; they have the same evolute curve.

Why Knot?:Exploration of variation in long-distance migration [PDF]
, 2020 Red knots (Calidris canutus) are shorebirds that spent most of the year at intertidal areas such as the Wadden Sea. However, once a year to and from their northern breeding grounds.
