  Frieze group - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Formally, a frieze group is a class of infinite discrete symmetry groups for patterns on a strip (infinitely wide rectangle), hence a class of groups of isometries of the plane, or of a strip.
In the case of symmetry groups in the plane, additional parameters are the direction of the translation vector, and, for the frieze groups 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7, the positioning perpendicular to the translation vector.
With the same translation distance, sequences of increasing symmetry are 137, 147, 157, and 126; with halving of the translation distance we also have 23 and 67.

 Radiographic Comparison of Vertical Tibial Translation Using Two Types of Suspensions on a Transtibial Prosthesis: A ...
Vertical tibial translation, the change in distance from distal tibia to the top of the lock mechanism, was then measured directly on each radiograph.
Additionally, soft-tissue translation was noted on the radiographs and measured from the visible distal soft tissue of the residuum to the top of the lock mechanism for both suspension types.
The difference in vertical displacement of the tibia between full weightbearing and nonweightbearing within the prosthesis was 3.3 cm for the neoprene sleeve and 3.1 cm for the shuttle lock.

 1.5 - Shifting, Reflecting, and Stretching Graphs
A translation in which the size and shape of the graph of a function is changed.
In this format, the "a" is a vertical multiplier and the "b" is a horizontal multiplier.
Vertical changes are affected the way you think they should be, so the result is to "multiply every y-coordinate by three" while leaving the x-coordinates alone.

A translation is an operation that shifts a graph horizontally, vertically, or both.
Vertical translations are represented by the value for k, while h is the variable used to represent horizontal translations.
This is commonly referred to as a vertical translation.

 Translation   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
When translation occurs, each point in an object is shifted vertically, horizontally, or both, by a specified amount.
Vertical translation can be represented by the following algorithm.
The horizontal and vertical translation transformations can be combined into a single operation by using a 3-by-3 matrix.

I made the beam spot smaller for this study so that the change in vertical position would be roughly equal to one beam diameter.
Problems: If the vertical centering isn't the same for the two data sets, then we're not sampling the same parts of the Pockels cell (though plots 3 and 4 suggest that's not terribly important).

Consequently, a horizontal translation of any (nonconstant) even function destroys this symmetry and results in a function which is no longer even.
In short, we can say the eveness of a function is a property which is preserved under vertical translations but not under horizontal translations.
Since g has a vertical asymptote at x = -1, we know that g involves a horizontal translation one unit left; hence, h = -1.

 [No title]
The one exception was the case of the half turn: a single center combined with a translation creates just two new centers at a distance equal to half the translation vector's length from the old center; the three centers are collinear, and all other, likewise formed centers are destined to lie on the same line.
type is the 'allignment' of their half turn centers along 'vertical' and 'horizontal' directions (and translations): this is a consequence of the way the (glide) reflections (and associated translations as studied above) of the 'vertical subpattern' are combined with the pattern's half turn(s).
More specifically, everything follows from the easily proven fact that the composition of a reflection M and a half turn R at a distance d from M is a glide reflection G passing through R, perpendicular to M and of gliding vector of length 2d.
