  2. Linear congruential generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_congruential_generator

    The second row is the same generator with a seed of 3, which produces a cycle of length 2. Using a = 4 and c = 1 (bottom row) gives a cycle length of 9 with any seed in [0, 8]. A linear congruential generator (LCG) is an algorithm that yields a sequence of pseudo-randomized numbers calculated with a discontinuous piecewise linear equation.

  3. Skyline matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyline_matrix

    Skyline storage has become very popular in the finite element codes for structural mechanics, because the skyline is preserved by Cholesky decomposition (a method of solving systems of linear equations with a symmetric, positive-definite matrix; all fill-in falls within the skyline), and systems of equations from finite elements have a ...

  4. Capability curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capability_curve

    Capability curve of an electrical generator describes the limits of the active and reactive power that the generator can provide. The curve represents a boundary of all operating points in the MW/MVAr plane; it is typically drawn with the real power on the horizontal axis, and, for the synchronous generator , resembles a letter D in shape, thus ...

  5. Roofline model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roofline_model

    The first (vertical dashed red line) has an arithmetic intensity that is underneath the peak bandwidth ceiling (diagonal solid black line), and is then memory-bound. Instead, the second (corresponding to the rightmost vertical dashed red line) has an arithmetic intensity O 2 {\displaystyle O_{2}} that is underneath the peak performance ceiling ...

  6. Generator matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generator_matrix

    A generator matrix for a linear [,,]-code has format , where n is the length of a codeword, k is the number of information bits (the dimension of C as a vector subspace), d is the minimum distance of the code, and q is size of the finite field, that is, the number of symbols in the alphabet (thus, q = 2 indicates a binary code, etc.).

  7. Macaulay's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macaulay's_method

    The starting point is the relation from Euler-Bernoulli beam theory = Where is the deflection and is the bending moment. This equation [7] is simpler than the fourth-order beam equation and can be integrated twice to find if the value of as a function of is known.

  8. Line element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_element

    The coordinate-independent definition of the square of the line element ds in an n-dimensional Riemannian or Pseudo Riemannian manifold (in physics usually a Lorentzian manifold) is the "square of the length" of an infinitesimal displacement [2] (in pseudo Riemannian manifolds possibly negative) whose square root should be used for computing curve length: = = (,) where g is the metric tensor ...

  9. Line length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_length

    In typography, line length is the width of a block of typeset text, usually measured in units of length like inches or points or in characters per line (in which case it is a measure). A block of text or paragraph has a maximum line length that fits a determined design. If the lines are too short then the text becomes disjointed; if they are ...
