Untitled[edit]

Pronunciation: an.IS.o.trop.y, right? stress on second sylable... 68.107.83.19 01:58, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

nope --Numsgil 04:12, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I guess that's what happens when you have a five-syllable word. Sure doesn't seem right, though.... 24.6.66.193 (talk) 15:15, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
YES! OF COURSE IT'S RIGHT! Honestly, what kind of pedantic dimwit is trying to train people to pronounce it how they do?! I'm sorry, it can't stay in the article, it's not a "fact", just an opinion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.115.133.197 (talk) 21:53, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't this be combined with isotropic? –radiojon 04:54, 2004 Jun 15 (UTC)

I have no clear opinion... but if it should, shouldn't the merged article be put at isotropy?Fredrik (talk) 09:20, 15 Jun 2004 (UTC)

You both have way too much time on your hands. Get a hobby...--192.28.2.17 17:51, 18 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Wikipedia is my hobby :) - Fredrik (talk) 18:04, 18 Jun 2004 (UTC)

It would be nice to have a visual example of what an Anisotropic Filter (for example, in computer graphics) does exactly. Like the images available at the antialiasing page. --Numsgil 01:51, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Isotropy should point to the correct article, not the disambiguation page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.186.24.99 (talk) 16:35, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"inc" ??[edit]

From the article:

"Some materials conduct heat inc, that is independent of spatial orientation around the heat source."

This sentence stops making sense around "inc, that". I can't decode it well enough to even consider rephrashing it. Anybody?... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.79.100.238 (talk) 11:11, 31 August 2007 (UTC) fail epically even i no that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.44.225.41 (talk) 13:51, 21 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Examples - wood, polarizer[edit]

I appreciate the "wood" example as it contains a succinct explanation of why wood is an anisotropic material (e.g., "is easier to split along the grain than against it"). On the other hand, no explanation is provided as to why "light coming through a polarizer" is an example of anisotropy. I am not commenting on the validity of the assertion and am not competent enough to provide an explanation, but think that the bare statement does not benefit a reader who does not understand anisotropy.--Rpclod (talk) 18:32, 11 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
