  2. Centrifugal force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_force

    Thus, centrifugus means "fleeing from the center" in a literal translation. In 1673, in Horologium Oscillatorium , Huygens writes (as translated by Richard J. Blackwell ): [ 3 ] There is another kind of oscillation in addition to the one we have examined up to this point; namely, a motion in which a suspended weight is moved around through the ...

  3. Translational efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translational_efficiency

    In cell biology, translational efficiency or translation efficiency is the rate of mRNA translation into proteins within cells. It has been measured in protein per mRNA per hour. [1] Several RNA elements within mRNAs have been shown to affect the rate. These include miRNA and protein binding sites. RNA structure may also affect translational ...

  4. Uncertainty coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncertainty_coefficient

    Suppose we have samples of two discrete random variables, X and Y.By constructing the joint distribution, P X,Y (x, y), from which we can calculate the conditional distributions, P X|Y (x|y) = P X,Y (x, y)/P Y (y) and P Y|X (y|x) = P X,Y (x, y)/P X (x), and calculating the various entropies, we can determine the degree of association between the two variables.

  5. Translational partition function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translational_partition...

    In statistical mechanics, the translational partition function, is that part of the partition function resulting from the movement (translation) of the center of mass. For a single atom or molecule in a low pressure gas, neglecting the interactions of molecules , the canonical ensemble q T {\displaystyle q_{T}} can be approximated by: [ 1 ]

  6. Process capability index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_capability_index

    If the upper and lower specification limits of the process are USL and LSL, the target process mean is T, the estimated mean of the process is ^ and the estimated variability of the process (expressed as a standard deviation) is ^, then commonly accepted process capability indices include:

  7. Confidence interval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confidence_interval

    Each row of points is a sample from the same normal distribution. The colored lines are 50% confidence intervals for the mean, μ.At the center of each interval is the sample mean, marked with a diamond.

    The "feels like" temperature, generally, is a more accurate description of what the human body will experience when stepping outside.

  9. Tail value at risk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tail_value_at_risk

    In financial mathematics, tail value at risk (TVaR), also known as tail conditional expectation (TCE) or conditional tail expectation (CTE), is a risk measure associated with the more general value at risk.
