Transverse

Although the ray travels parallel to the length of the fiber, it is often called transverse mode since its electromagnetic vibrations occur perpendicular (transverse) to the length of the fiber.

However, at frequencies for which the wavelength (in the dielectric) is significantly shorter than the circumference of the cable, transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) waveguide modes can also propagate.

Love waves have transverse motion (movement is perpendicular to the direction of travel, like light waves), whereas Rayleigh waves have both longitudinal (movement parallel to the direction of travel, like sound waves) and transverse motion.

Multihulls feature reduced roll and yaw (equivalent pitch motion) with transverse stability (depends on transverse clearance) comparable to or greater than longitudinal stability.

Non-transverse polarization In addition to transverse waves, there are many wave motions where the oscillation is not limited to directions perpendicular to the direction of propagation.

The wave impedance of an electromagnetic wave is the ratio of the transverse components of the electric and magnetic fields (the transverse components being those at right angles to the direction of propagation).

Transverse crevasses are transverse to flow and form where steeper slopes cause a glacier to accelerate.

Transverse processes The transverse processes are large; they project laterally and downward from the lateral masses, and serve for the attachment of muscles which assist in rotating the head.

While mechanical waves can be both transverse and longitudinal, all electromagnetic waves are transverse in free space.

Metropolitan Police Department Lt. Daryl Rhoads addresses media in front of the safety transverse rumble strips at the intersection of US 93 and Grand Valley Parkway in Las Vegas, Tuesday, March 28, 2023.

Mitsui Sumitomo Insurance Co. has completed its acquisition of Warren, New Jersey-based reinsurance intermediary Transverse Insurance Group, closing a deal that was announced in August.

Behind the hot V sits the P1 e-motor and then a transverse transaxle, which Lambo programmed to offer a wider operating range of smoother shifts in the Temerario's Citta and Strada modes, then snappier performance in Sport and Corsa.

Fiat invented the modern design for FWD cars, employing a transverse engine and end-on gearbox that sends power to the front wheels through unequal-length half shafts.

Our lives transverse through times when we all have temptations that fit the time and the age and the social pressures at each age.

This former gas station-turned-general store (there’s still a gas pump outside) is owned by the same husband-and-wife duo behind Larner Wines, located right next door, which means you can sip on a glass of 2021 Transverse Syrah and shop at the same time.

The AZN trial has since restarted, but the patient is believed to have developed transverse myelitis, an inflammation of the spinal cord.

This rotational exercise takes place in the transverse plane and focuses on strength and mobility through the side body and back.

At 11, afflicted with two rare conditions (transverse myelitis and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis), Arlen experienced brain and spinal cord swelling that left her paralyzed and unable to communicate for four years.

It debuts the new Premium Transverse Architecture, and while it’s not really any bigger than the Evoque it replaces, it is said to be roomier inside, stiffer and quieter.

It’s worth noting that Jones also had a transverse fracture in his back this past season, so perhaps this surgery is related to that issue.
