Examples

“They've plotted what they call isogravs, lines of equal-g, and riding parallel to them seems to do funny things.”

“The favorable microgravity conditions 389 resulting from this are charted in figure 7, which shows the isograv envelopes of constant gravity gradient acceleration experienced aboard the station.”

“Figure 5 shows the isogravs on a solar inertial station. You get constant gravity just like you do on the LVLH station as you come out of the orbit plane.”

“Already isogravs showed the system's primary, an F9 star without a name of its own, unless you consider catalog numbers.”

“Based on values obtained by Eqns (1a) and (1c), we computed for VI, QI and VI\QI-ratio one coefficient of variation (CV) accounting for total heterogeneity (CV total) and one accounting for variation within isogravitational planes (CV isograv).”

“The magnetic anomaly rasters (bouguerbougure, isograv and magnetic) were obtained from the USGS as was the thermal maturity point data.”

“Isostatic residual anomaly, isograv: Isostatic residual anomaly data removes the long-wavelength part of the gravity field to correct for topographic load and provide for surface gravity mapping.”
