geodesic line 例句
英汉例句
in order to transform conveniently the directional angle of a geodesic line into the geodetic azimuth, the solution of the meridianal convergence is expressed by geodesic coordinates of this point.
therefore, it is advised to split the surface and only keep the part on which the geodesic line will lie.
因此,建议你分割面,保留线几何体依附的部份。
the minimum potential energy principle is used to prove that the balance of equal-tension geometrical nonlinear cables is achieved at the geodesic line when it slides freely on membrane surface.
