The gradient (or gradient vector field) of a scalar function f(x 1, x 2, x 3, …, x n) is denoted ∇f or ∇ → f where ∇ denotes the vector differential operator, del. The notation grad f is also commonly used to represent the gradient.

Consider a function f: Rn →R. The gradient of f is the function ∇f: Rn →Rn, defined by. ∇f =(∂f ∂x1, ∂f ∂x2,..., ∂f ∂xn). We’ll see that this vector turns out to be closely related to directional derivatives. Dv f(a ) = limh→0 f(a + hv ) − f(a ) h. We’ll rewrite this definition by considering another function, F(h) = f(a + hv ).

2004年9月14日 · Kapro 105 Topgrade Gradient Box Level is an all-surface leveling tool. This level features a printed table of equivalence with percentage, gradient, pitch and mm/m for accurate measurements. This box level features vials that are pre-installed at 0%, 1% and 2% sloping (The 48" version has 2 additional vials at 0.5% and 1.5%) as well as a ...

figure 3: the level surfaces f(x,y,z) = 9 (with grid) and f(x,y,z) = 1 (smooth), with an exaggerated gradient vector (yellow) shown. At the point (2,2,1), the gradient vector is grad f = < 4, -4, 2 >.

(i) Compute the gradient rF (or gradF). (ii) Identify the level surface F(x;y;z) = constant through the point (x;y;z) = (1;1;1). (iii) Find the tangent plane to the level surface from part (ii). Recall that the tangent plane to a surface z = f(x;y) at the point (x 0;y 0;z 0) is z z 0 = f …

Given any vector \vec v tangent to level, \nabla w\perp \vec v,实际上也垂直于tangent plane to the level. 例：find the tangent plane to surface x^2+y^2-z^2=4 at (2,1,1). Level set w=4, where w=x^2+y^2-z^2. \nabla w=<2x, 2y,-2z>=<4,2,-2>---normal surface to the tangent plane

The gradient vector is designed to point in the direction of the greatest INITIAL increase on your curve/surface/etc. Notice that the gradient vector always lives in one dimension
