Calculation of center of gravity. A: effect of the displacement of the wave with respect to the section in the calculation of the c.o.g. (black triangles). B: serial calculation of the c.o.g. (red line) in a simulated sinusoidal wave, with s = l = T. Red rectangles show two sections to illustrate the displacement of the wave with respect to the section. If this displacement is not compensated, the erroneous estimation is clearly visible on the resulting graph.
