  2. Logarithmic decrement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_decrement

    The logarithmic decrement can be obtained e.g. as ln(x 1 /x 3).Logarithmic decrement, , is used to find the damping ratio of an underdamped system in the time domain.. The method of logarithmic decrement becomes less and less precise as the damping ratio increases past about 0.5; it does not apply at all for a damping ratio greater than 1.0 because the system is overdamped.

  3. List of logarithmic identities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_logarithmic_identities

    ln(r) is the standard natural logarithm of the real number r. Arg(z) is the principal value of the arg function; its value is restricted to (−π, π]. It can be computed using Arg(x + iy) = atan2(y, x). Log(z) is the principal value of the complex logarithm function and has imaginary part in the range (−π, π].

    Similarly, there must be a neighborhood of the point at infinity which is mapped into an arbitrarily small neighborhood of Τ n (∞) = ⁠ A n−1 / B n−1 ⁠. So if the continued fraction converges the transformation Τ n ( z ) maps both very small z and very large z into an arbitrarily small neighborhood of x , the value of the continued ...

  5. Natural logarithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_logarithm

    For example, ln 7.5 is 2.0149..., because e 2.0149... = 7.5. The natural logarithm of e itself, ln e, is 1, because e 1 = e, while the natural logarithm of 1 is 0, since e 0 = 1. The natural logarithm can be defined for any positive real number a as the area under the curve y = 1/x from 1 to a [4] (with the area being negative when 0 < a < 1 ...

  6. Logarithm - Wikipedia

    The logarithm keys (LOG for base 10 and LN for base e) on a TI-83 Plus graphing calculator Logarithms are easy to compute in some cases, such as log 10 (1000) = 3 . In general, logarithms can be calculated using power series or the arithmetic–geometric mean , or be retrieved from a precalculated logarithm table that provides a fixed precision.

  7. Logarithmic integral function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_integral_function

    Here, ln denotes the natural logarithm. The function 1/(ln t) has a singularity at t = 1, and the integral for x > 1 is interpreted as a Cauchy principal value, ...

  8. Plotting algorithms for the Mandelbrot set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plotting_algorithms_for...

    For values within the Mandelbrot set, escape will never occur. The programmer or user must choose how many iterations–or how much "depth"–they wish to examine. The higher the maximal number of iterations, the more detail and subtlety emerge in the final image, but the longer time it will take to calculate the fractal image.

  9. Chebyshev function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev_function

    The second Chebyshev function can be seen to be related to the first by writing it as = ⁡where k is the unique integer such that p k ≤ x and x < p k + 1.The values of k are given in OEIS: A206722.
