  2. Quadratic mean diameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_mean_diameter

    In forestry, quadratic mean diameter or QMD is a measure of central tendency which is considered more appropriate than arithmetic mean for characterizing the group of trees which have been measured. For n trees, QMD is calculated using the quadratic mean formula:

  3. Stand density index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stand_Density_Index

    Stand density index (SDI; also known as Reineke's Stand Density Index [1] after its founder) is a measure of the stocking of a stand of trees based on the number of trees per unit area and diameter at breast height (DBH) of the tree of average basal area, also known as the quadratic mean diameter. It may also be defined as the degree of ...

  4. Quadric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadric

    A quadratic set is a set of points of a projective space with the same geometric properties as a quadric: every line intersects a quadratic set in at most two points ...

  5. Carlyle circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlyle_circle

    Carlyle circle of the quadratic equation x 2 − sx + p = 0. Given the quadratic equation x 2 − sx + p = 0. the circle in the coordinate plane having the line segment joining the points A(0, 1) and B(s, p) as a diameter is called the Carlyle circle of the quadratic equation. [1] [2] [3]

  6. Types of mesh - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_mesh

    A mesh is a representation of a larger geometric domain by smaller discrete cells. Meshes are commonly used to compute solutions of partial differential equations and render computer graphics, and to analyze geographical and cartographic data.

  7. Ellipsoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipsoid

    The diameter of the ellipsoid is twice the longest semi-axis, ... for quadratic form z. Thus the density function is a scalar-to-scalar transformation of a quadric ...

  8. Paraboloid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraboloid

    The diameter of the dish, measured along the surface, is then given by + ⁡ (+), where ln x means the natural logarithm of x, i.e. its logarithm to base e. The volume of the dish, the amount of liquid it could hold if the rim were horizontal and the vertex at the bottom (e.g. the capacity of a paraboloidal wok ), is given by π 2 R 2 D ...

  9. Quadrature (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrature_(geometry)

    For this purpose it is possible to use the following: if one draws the circle with diameter made from joining line segments of lengths a and b, then the height (BH in the diagram) of the line segment drawn perpendicular to the diameter, from the point of their connection to the point where it crosses the circle, equals the geometric mean of a ...
