  2. Root mean square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_mean_square

    Peak values can be calculated from RMS values from the above formula, which implies V P = V RMS × √ 2, assuming the source is a pure sine wave. Thus the peak value of the mains voltage in the USA is about 120 × √ 2 , or about 170 volts.

  3. Root mean square deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_mean_square_deviation

    Normalizing the RMSD facilitates the comparison between datasets or models with different scales. Though there is no consistent means of normalization in the literature, common choices are the mean or the range (defined as the maximum value minus the minimum value) of the measured data: [4]

  4. Cannabis drug testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabis_drug_testing

    Under the typical 50 ng/mL cutoff used for cannabis testing in the United States, an occasional or on-off user would be very unlikely to test positive beyond 3–4 days since the last use, and a chronic user would be likely to test positive much beyond 7 days all the way up to 90 days in a urine or hair sample.

  5. Crest factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crest_factor

    The peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is the peak amplitude squared (giving the peak power) divided by the RMS value squared (giving the average power). [1] It is the square of the crest factor. When expressed in decibels , crest factor and PAPR are equivalent, due to the way decibels are calculated for power ratios vs amplitude ratios .

  6. Strain rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_rate

    This strain rate tensor can be defined as the time derivative of the strain tensor, or as the symmetric part of the gradient (derivative with respect to position) of the velocity of the material. With a chosen coordinate system , the strain rate tensor can be represented by a symmetric 3×3 matrix of real numbers.

  7. Lüders band - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lüders_band

    The visible front on the material usually makes a well-defined angle typically 50–55° from the specimen axis as it moves down the sample. [5] During the propagation of the band the nominal stress–strain curve is flat. [4] After the band has passed through the material the deformation proceeds uniformly with positive strain hardening.

  8. Ripple (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple_(electrical)

    Various properties of ripple voltage may be important depending on application: the equation of the ripple for Fourier analysis to determine the constituent harmonics; the peak (usually peak-to-peak) value of the voltage; the root mean square (RMS) value of the voltage which is a component of power transmitted; the ripple factor γ, the ratio ...

  9. Stress–strain curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress–strain_curve

    In engineering and materials science, a stress–strain curve for a material gives the relationship between stress and strain. It is obtained by gradually applying load to a test coupon and measuring the deformation , from which the stress and strain can be determined (see tensile testing ).
