  2. Statically indeterminate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statically_indeterminate

    A statically indeterminate structure can only be analyzed by including further information like material properties and deflections. Numerically, this can be achieved by using matrix structural analyses, finite element method (FEM) or the moment distribution method ( Hardy Cross ) .

  3. Indeterminate (variable) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indeterminate_(variable)

    In mathematics, an indeterminate or formal variable is a variable (a symbol, usually a letter) that is used purely formally in a mathematical expression, but does not stand for any value. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ better source needed ]

  4. Independent and identically distributed random variables

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independent_and...

    In statistics, "random sample" is the typical terminology, but in probability, it is more common to say "IID." Identically distributed means that there are no overall trends — the distribution does not fluctuate and all items in the sample are taken from the same probability distribution.

  5. Indeterminate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indeterminate

    Indeterminate (variable), a symbol that is treated as a variable; Indeterminate system, a system of simultaneous equations that has more than one solution; Indeterminate equation, an equation that has more than one solution; Indeterminate form, an algebraic expression with certain limiting behaviour in mathematical analysis

  6. Moment distribution method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment_distribution_method

    The moment distribution method is a structural analysis method for statically indeterminate beams and frames developed by Hardy Cross. It was published in 1930 in an ASCE journal. [1] The method only accounts for flexural effects and ignores axial and shear effects.

  7. Sensitivity and specificity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensitivity_and_specificity

    In medicine and statistics, sensitivity and specificity mathematically describe the accuracy of a test that reports the presence or absence of a medical condition. If individuals who have the condition are considered "positive" and those who do not are considered "negative", then sensitivity is a measure of how well a test can identify true ...

    Also confidence coefficient. A number indicating the probability that the confidence interval (range) captures the true population mean. For example, a confidence interval with a 95% confidence level has a 95% chance of capturing the population mean. Technically, this means that, if the experiment were repeated many times, 95% of the CIs computed at this level would contain the true population ...

  9. Stationary process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stationary_process

    In mathematics and statistics, a stationary process (or a strict/strictly stationary process or strong/strongly stationary process) is a stochastic process whose unconditional joint probability distribution does not change when shifted in time. Consequently, parameters such as mean and variance also do not change over time.
