List of images
Image: A 2D circulating vector field
A 2D vector field illustrating circulation.
Image: A 2D circulating vector field with closed curve
A vector field that tends to circulate in the clockwise direction, along with an elliptical curve.
Image: A 2D vector field pointing outward
A vector field that illustrates expansion or positive divergence.
Image: A 2D vector field pointing inward
A vector field that illustrates compression or negative divergence.
Image: Sample vectors from a vector field
A few sample vectors plotted to illustrate how to represent a vector field.
Image: Shear flow vector field with closed curve
A vector field representing shear flow, along with a circular curve along which there is circulation.
Image: A single vector from a vector field
A single vector is plotted to illustrate how to represent a vector field.
Image: The opposite vector
The vector that is opposite to a given vector has the same magnitude but the opposite direction.
Image: The parallelogram law, or commutative law, of vector addition
The parallelogram law shows that vector addition is commutative, i.e., is independent of the order of the vectors.
Image: Volume of parallelepiped
Illustration of a formula for the volume of the parallelepiped spanned by three vectors.
