	Inversion (geometry) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In Euclidean geometry, the inversion of a point X in respect to a point P is a point X* such that P is the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints X and X*.
		Closely related to inverse in a point is reflection in respect to a plane, which can be thought of as a "inversion in a plane".
		Inversion with respect to the origin corresponds to additive inversion of the position vector, and also to scalar multiplication by −1.

	III.C. CRYSTALS, SYMMETRY, AND DIFFRACTION
		Inversion: A symmetry operation in which each point of an object is converted to an equivalent point by projecting through a common center (called center of inversion or center of symmetry) and extending an equal distance beyond this center.
		The repeat distance between points in a particular row of the reciprocal lattice is inversely proportional to the interplanar spacing between the nets of the crystal lattice that are normal to this row of points.
		Inversion symmetry (i): each point in the object is converted to an identical point by projecting through a common center and extending an equal distance beyond this center.

	Optical device for copying machine with inversion of principal point of optical system - Patent 4792826
		Accordingly, the principal point H (strictly the median point between a fore principal point h1 and a rear principal point h2) is located at a position outside of the optical lens 13.
		However, in a case where the principal point is located externally of the optical system 11 as in the present invention, the copy ratio is determined not by the position of the optical system 11 but by the position of the principal point in the light path 4.
		The inversion of the optical system 11 by the afore-mentioned drive mechanism 12 has to be effected in the unit copy ratio or smaller copy ratios and at a position where the lens barrel of the optical system 11 is free from interference with the mirror 8.

	Basics of Radio Wave Propagation
		Inversions that occur along frontal systems support propagation along a line parallel to the weather front, and radio amateurs using frontal inversion often point their antennas parallel to the frontal system to take advantage of this form of propagation.
		This layer reaches maximum ionization when the sun is at its highest point in the sky and this layer is also responsible the the complete absorption of sky waves from the 80m and 160m amateur bands as well as the AM broadcast band during the daytime hours.
		Inversion lines separate regions of opposing polarity and are often superposed by thin, dark filaments, which can be used as tracers.

	Xah: Special Plane Curves: Hyperbola
		Hyperbola is commonly defined as the locus of points P such that the difference of the distances from P to two fixed points F1, F2 (called foci) are constant.
		The inversion of a rectangular hyperbola with respect to its center is again a lemniscate of Bernoulli.
		The inversion of any hyperbola with respect to a focus is a limacon of Pascal.

	Introduction
		From the inversion point of view, velocity and heterogeneities are closely related.
		What is needed to use this approximation is an inversion procedure that fits traveltimes with ellipses once a model for heterogeneities has been chosen.
		This compromise addresses three issues: how general the medium can be, how stable the inversion procedure is, and how difficult the ray tracing is. Such an ``intermediate'' model consists of consists of homogeneous elliptically anisotropic blocks separated by straight interfaces of variable dip and intersect.

	System for decreasing resistance to flow of crude oil up from a well or through a pipeline - Patent 4100967
		until the inversion point is crossed where a lower viscosity emulsion consisting of oil-in-water is formed for reducing resistance to flow of crude oil up from deep in a well to the surface, or through a pipeline.
		This is the inversion of phase region wherein the brine-in-oil emulsion changes from the internal phase to the external phase.
		The inversion point of the water-in-oil emulsion may vary due to the particular oil viscosity, mechanism for making the emulsion, the water temperature, etc. In the disclosed invention, the inversion point occurred substantially at the 80 percent brine-to-oil ratio area on the curve.

	Voice encryption
		Speech inversion is a very common method of speech scrambling, probably because its the cheapest.
		Variable band inversion can be identified by the burst of modem noise at the beginning of the transmission (its a 1200 bps carrier) and the repeated clicking sounds as the inverting frequency changes.
		Descrambling variable band inversion would be a chore for the amateur eavesdropper, as the inversion point changes every fraction of a second.

	..:: Emulsification of oils near a Phase Inversion Condition - Michael McCoy ::..
		A conductivity meter was also employed as a means of determining the actual phase inversion point.
		The conductivity is a useful method of determining the continuous phase, as water is highly conductive in comparison to oil, therefore, a high variance will occur in conductivity at the point of inversion.
		Photos were taken at 10 ml intervals, and after inversion, an extra quantity of the new continuous phase was added to examine what occurred to the drop size distribution after catastrophic inversion.

		An aqueous phase change ink contains a selected concentration of hyperthermogelling component that causes the ink to gel when its temperature is increased to its thermo-inversion point or when the concentration of the hyperthermogelling component is increased by evaporation, or substrate absorption, of water from the ink.
		The ink may be jetted directly onto a heated and/or absorptive substrate or jetted onto a cooler and/or hydrophobic surface before being transferred to the substrate.
		The thermo-inversion point is preferably about ambient temperature, and the preferred hyperthermogelling component is a nonionic surfactant, such as an ethylene oxide propylene oxide block copolymer surfactant.

		The top of the thermal lift is usually at an inversion, a point on the temperature line where it makes a turn upwards or to the right with a slope steeper than the DALR lines.
		To determine whether cumulus clouds are likely at the chosen forecast hour, start at the bottom of the dewpoint forecast line and draw a line upwards parallel to the nearest saturation line until it intersects the temperature forecast line.
		The reasoning behind this is that the ascending parcel of air takes its water content along with it as it rises from the ground, and it becomes saturated when it reaches the intersection with the saturation line.

	CNN - Rare disorder offers genetic clues to internal clock - October 21, 1999
		The disorder, which was discovered less than 10 years ago, is caused by a genetic abnormality on chromosome 17 and occurs in one out of 25,000 children, who are characterized by certain physical traits -- tantrums, hyperactivity, mental retardation and severe sleep disturbances, de Leersnyder said.
		She added that the discovery of melatonin inversion may point to the reason for some of the aggressiveness and hyperactivity of these children who are severely sleep deprived.
		Although she does not think it is possible that lack of sleep could cause retardation, the results may open the door to finding new treatments, such as methods for blocking melatonin production during the day and boosting it at night.

	THESIS ABSTRACT
		The people's ambivalent laughter, on the other hand, expresses the point of view of the whole world; he who is laughing also belongs to it.
		Rather, it is the oral and verbal style of folk laughter (with its characteristics of inversion, hyperbole, irreverence and dynamism) that was adapted to the new context of writing for the purpose of literary satire and parody.
		Moreover, through all the stages of historic development feasts were linked to moments of crisis, of breaking points in the cycle of nature or in the life of society and man. Moments of death and revival, of change and renewal always led to a festive perception of the world.

		Four years after publicly revealing the official draft human genetic sequence, researchers have reached the halfway point in dotting the i's and crossing the t's of the genetic sentences describing how to build a human.
