Anemometer constant torque and responded more quickly to gusts than the four-cup anemometer. The three-cup anemometer was further modified by the Australian Dr. Derek Weston in 1991 to measure both wind direction and wind speed. Weston added a tag to one cup, which causes the cupwheel speed to increase and decrease as the tag moves alternately with and against the wind. Wind direction is calculated from these cyclical changes in cupwheel speed, while wind speed is determined from the average cupwheel speed. Three-cup anemometers are currently used as the industry standard for wind resource assessment studies & practice. One of the
Content (measure theory) by This is an outer measure, in other words it has the following properties: The function μ above is an outer measure on the family of all subsets. Therefore it becomes a measure when restricted to the measurable subsets for the outer measure, which are the subsets "E" such that μ("X") = μ("X"∩"E") + μ("X"\"E") for all subsets "X". If the space is locally compact then every open set is measurable for this measure. The measure μ does not necessarily coincide with the content λ on compact sets, However it does if λ is regular in the sense that for
