Dictionary:Principal direction
Revision as of 09:33, 5 April 2019 by Robruiz ucv (talk | contribs) (Prepared the page for translation)
One of the natural directions of a system. When oriented in the principal directions, cross-coupling terms disappear, tensor impedances decouple, nondiagonal terms of matrices vanish, or other simplifications occur. The normal curvature has its maximum and minimum values in the principal directions.
