  2. Normal mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_mode

    This space-dependence is called a normal mode. Usually, for problems with continuous dependence on (x, y, z) there is no single or finite number of normal modes, but there are infinitely many normal modes. If the problem is bounded (i.e. it is defined on a finite section of space) there are countably many normal modes (usually numbered n = 1, 2 ...

  3. 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: ⁡ [] =.

  4. Natural frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_frequency

    A system's normal mode is defined by the oscillation of a natural frequency in a sine waveform. In analysis of systems, it is convenient to use the angular frequency ω = 2πf rather than the frequency f, or the complex frequency domain parameter s = σ + ωi.

  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. 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 ...

  7. Phonon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonon

    The number of normal modes is the same as the number of particles. Still, the Fourier space is very useful given the periodicity of the system. A set of N "normal coordinates" Q k may be introduced, defined as the discrete Fourier transforms of the x k and N "conjugate momenta" Π k defined as the Fourier transforms of the p k:

  8. Pearson distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pearson_distribution

    A Pearson density p is defined to be any valid solution to the differential equation (cf. Pearson 1895, p. 381) ′ () + + + + = ()with: =, = = +, =. According to Ord, [3] Pearson devised the underlying form of Equation (1) on the basis of, firstly, the formula for the derivative of the logarithm of the density function of the normal distribution (which gives a linear function) and, secondly ...

  9. Quasinormal mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasinormal_mode

    Formally, the resonances (i.e., the quasinormal mode) of an open (non-Hermitian) electromagnetic micro or nanoresonators are all found by solving the time-harmonic source-free Maxwell’s equations with a complex frequency, the real part being the resonance frequency and the imaginary part the damping rate. The damping is due to energy loses ...
