Joukowsky Transform - General Joukowsky Transform

General Joukowsky Transform

The Joukowsky transform of any complex number to is as follows

\begin{align} z &= x + iy =\zeta+\frac{1}{\zeta} \\ &= \chi + i \eta + \frac{1}{\chi + i \eta} \\ &= \chi + i \eta + \frac{(\chi - i \eta)}{\chi^2 + \eta^2} \\ &= \frac{\chi (\chi^2 + \eta^2 + 1)}{\chi^2 + \eta^2} + i\frac{\eta (\chi^2 + \eta^2 - 1)}{\chi^2 + \eta^2}. \end{align}

So the real (x) and imaginary (y) components are:

\begin{align} x &= \frac{\chi (\chi^2 + \eta^2 + 1)}{\chi^2 + \eta^2} \qquad \text{and} \\ y &= \frac{\eta (\chi^2 + \eta^2 - 1)}{\chi^2 + \eta^2}. \end{align}

Famous quotes containing the words general and/or transform:

    “I suggested to them also the great desirability of a general knowledge on the Island of the English language. They are under an English speaking government and are a part of the territory of an English speaking nation.... While I appreciated the desirability of maintaining their grasp on the Spanish language, the beauty of that language and the richness of its literature, that as a practical matter for them it was quite necessary to have a good comprehension of English.”
    —Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)

    “Government ... thought [it] could transform the country through massive national programs, but often the programs did not work. Too often they only made things worse. In our rush to accomplish great deeds quickly, we trampled on sound principles of restraint and endangered the rights of individuals.”
    —Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
