PS Ib. Geometric (ray-tracing) concentration by reflection (parabolic and / or ellipsoidal, etc, dish or trough mirrors) concentrate flux but conserve intensity.— RealClimate
An arbitrary ellipsoidal wireframe model was created around the drill hole samples in the silicified zone.
To calculate the magnetic field B due to a dipole in an ellipsoid, one must evaluate truncated series expansions involving ellipsoidal harmonics $$ \mathbbE_n^m $$, which are products of Lamé functions.— CiteULike: Everyone's library
In this paper, we take into account the effect of three types of imperfect bonding between the inclusions and the matrix by replacing the imperfectly bonded ellipsoidal inclusions with equivalent perfectly bonded homogeneous inclusions using the average t-matrix approximation of the multiple-scattering approach.— CiteULike: Everyone's library
Dicopper (II) bistren cryptates are ideal receptors for ambidentate anions, capable to bridge the two Cu II centres: the size of the ellipsoidal cavity and consequent inclusion selectivity can be modulated by varying the length of the spacers linking the two tren subunits.— CiteULike: Everyone's library
