  2. Builder's Old Measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Builder's_Old_Measurement

    Builder's Old Measurement (BOM, bm, OM, and o.m.) is the method used in England from approximately 1650 to 1849 for calculating the cargo capacity of a ship. It is a volumetric measurement of cubic capacity.

  3. Metacentric height - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metacentric_height

    By means of the inclining experiment, the 'as-built' centre of gravity can be found; obtaining GM and KM by experiment measurement (by means of pendulum swing measurements and draft readings), the centre of gravity KG can be found. So KM and GM become the known variables during inclining and KG is the wanted calculated variable (KG = KM-GM)

  4. Orders of magnitude (mass) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(mass)

    An overview of ranges of mass. To help compare different orders of magnitude, the following lists describe various mass levels between 10 −67 kg and 10 52 kg. The least massive thing listed here is a graviton, and the most massive thing is the observable universe.

  5. Shear and moment diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_and_moment_diagram

    Shear and Bending moment diagram for a simply supported beam with a concentrated load at mid-span. Shear force and bending moment diagrams are analytical tools used in conjunction with structural analysis to help perform structural design by determining the value of shear forces and bending moments at a given point of a structural element such as a beam.

  6. Neighbourhood (graph theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neighbourhood_(graph_theory)

    A graph is locally cyclic if every neighbourhood is a cycle. For instance, the octahedron is the unique connected locally C 4 graph, the icosahedron is the unique connected locally C 5 graph, and the Paley graph of order 13 is locally C 6. Locally cyclic graphs other than K 4 are exactly the underlying graphs of Whitney triangulations ...

    The points P 1, P 2, and P 3 (in blue) are collinear and belong to the graph of x 3 + ⁠ 3 / 2 ⁠ x 2 − ⁠ 5 / 2 ⁠ x + ⁠ 5 / 4 ⁠. The points T 1, T 2, and T 3 (in red) are the intersections of the (dotted) tangent lines to the graph at these points with the graph itself. They are collinear too.

  8. Graph homomorphism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_homomorphism

    For example, consider the directed cycle graphs C → n, with vertices 1, 2, …, n and edges from i to i + 1 (for i = 1, 2, …, n − 1) and from n to 1. There is a homomorphism from C → n to C → k (n, k ≥ 3) if and only if n is a multiple of k. In particular, directed cycle graphs C → n with n prime are all incomparable. [47]

  9. List of limits - Wikipedia

    If () = = and () () for all x in an open interval that contains c, except possibly c itself, =. This is known as the squeeze theorem . [ 1 ] [ 2 ] This applies even in the cases that f ( x ) and g ( x ) take on different values at c , or are discontinuous at c .
