Etymology

From anemo- + -metry.

Meanings

1. (uncountable, usually) Measurement of the direction and velocity of the wind.
   • For instance, a physical magnitude such as the shear stress on the endothelialmembrane,which is verydifficult to test invitro, canbe easily calculated on real geometries obtained with tri-dimensional algorithms, thanks to the support of modern and noninvasive data acquisition technology (such as nuclear magnetic resonance, digital angiography, axial tomography, and Doppler anemometry). 2009 January, Notices of the American Mathematical Society, volume 56, number 1, archived from the original on 25 Jan 2009:
