  2. Normal mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_mode

    A normal mode of a dynamical system is a pattern of motion in which all parts of the system move sinusoidally with the same frequency and with a fixed phase relation ...

  3. Mode (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_(statistics)

    Like the statistical mean and median, the mode is a way of expressing, in a (usually) single number, important information about a random variable or a population. The numerical value of the mode is the same as that of the mean and median in a normal distribution, and it may be very different in highly skewed distributions.

  4. Mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode

    Mode (electromagnetism), a pattern of wave propagation. Longitudinal mode; Transverse mode; Hybrid mode, such as longitudinal-section mode; Normal mode, patterns of vibration in acoustics, electromagnetic theory, etc. Global mode, a concept in hydrodynamics; Quasinormal mode, a type of energy dissipation of a perturbed object or field

  5. Normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_distribution

    The simplest case of a normal distribution is known as the standard normal distribution or unit normal distribution. This is a special case when μ = 0 {\textstyle \mu =0} and σ 2 = 1 {\textstyle \sigma ^{2}=1} , and it is described by this probability density function (or density): φ ( z ) = e − z 2 2 2 π . {\displaystyle \varphi (z ...

  6. Mode conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_conversion

    Mode conversion occurs when a wave encounters an interface between materials of different impedances and the incident angle is not normal to the interface. [1] Thus, for example, if a longitudinal wave from a fluid (e.g., water or air) strikes a solid (e.g., steel plate), it is usually refracted and reflected as a function of the angle of incidence, but if some of the energy causes particle ...

  7. Normal modes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/?title=Normal_modes&redirect=no

    Normal mode From the plural form : This is a redirect from a plural noun to its singular form. This redirect link is used for convenience; it is often preferable to add the plural directly after the link (for example, [[link]]s

  8. Molecular vibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_vibration

    Formally, normal modes are determined by solving a secular determinant, and then the normal coordinates (over the normal modes) can be expressed as a summation over the cartesian coordinates (over the atom positions). The normal modes diagonalize the matrix governing the molecular vibrations, so that each normal mode is an independent molecular ...

  9. Log-normal distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log-normal_distribution

    Comparison of mean, median and mode of two log-normal distributions with different skewness. The mode is the point of global maximum of the probability density function. In particular, by solving the equation (⁡) ′ =, we get that: ⁡ [] =.
