In the field of fluid dynamics the point at which the boundary layer changes from laminar to turbulent is called the transition point. Where the boundary layer becomes turbulent, drag due to skin friction is relatively high. As speed increases, the transition point tends to move forward. As the angle of attack increases, the transition point also tends to move forward.

The first satellite navigation system, Transit, used by the United States Navy, was first successfully tested in 1960.
The time delay is calculated by increasingly delaying the local signal and comparing it to the one received from the satellite; at some point the two signals will match up, and that delay is the time needed for the signal to reach the receiver.
The problem arises because the transition from 0-1 or 1-0 on the C/A signal is not instantaneous, it takes a non-zero amount of time, and thus the correlation (satellite-receiver sequence matching) operation is imperfect.
Moreover, if the j transitions are ordered by labels (1, 2, 3,..., j) in each term, we also cannot know the order of any specifically labeled transitions; therefore, we divide the jth degree term by the number of permutations of the labeled transitions, j!.
This distinguishes n=4 as a transitionpoint, where in the local quantum temporal behavior, order in the transitions of the fundamental clock eigenprocesses emerges from their "q-stochastic chaos".
In this view point of dynamics from transition amplitudes, there is an intrinsic and absolute proper waiting time that is counted in indivisible Planck time units, which act much like refractory periods after which either a transition takes place, or doesn't.
