  3. Exponential growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_growth

    Growth like this is observed in real-life activity or phenomena, such as the spread of virus infection, the growth of debt due to compound interest, and the spread of viral videos. In real cases, initial exponential growth often does not last forever, instead slowing down eventually due to upper limits caused by external factors and turning ...

  4. Gompertz function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gompertz_function

    This function consideration of the plateau cell number makes it useful in accurately mimicking real-life population dynamics. The function also adheres to the sigmoid function, which is the most widely accepted convention of generally detailing a population's growth. Moreover, the function makes use of initial growth rate, which is commonly ...

  5. Malthusian growth model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malthusian_growth_model

    By now, it is a widely accepted view to analogize Malthusian growth in Ecology to Newton's First Law of uniform motion in physics. [8] Malthus wrote that all life forms, including humans, have a propensity to exponential population growth when resources are abundant but that actual growth is limited by available resources:

  6. Biological exponential growth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_exponential_growth

    Biological exponential growth is the unrestricted growth of a population of organisms, occurring when resources in its habitat are unlimited. [1] Most commonly apparent in species that reproduce quickly and asexually , like bacteria , exponential growth is intuitive from the fact that each organism can divide and produce two copies of itself.

  7. Universal joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_joint

    In Europe the universal joint is often called the Cardano joint (and a drive shaft that uses the joints, a Cardan shaft), after the 16th century Italian mathematician, Gerolamo Cardano, who was an early writer on gimbals, although his writings mentioned only gimbal mountings, not universal joints.

  8. e-folding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-folding

    Upon comparing the ratio on the left hand side to the equation on the right hand side, we conclude that the ratio between the final and initial concentrations follows an exponential function, of which e is the base. As mentioned above, the units for k are inverse time. If we were to take the reciprocal of this, we would be left with units of time.

    1. The domain is the real line .The set-family contains all the half-lines (rays) from a given number to positive infinity, i.e., all sets of the form {>} for some .For any set of real numbers, the intersection contains + sets: the empty set, the set containing the largest element of , the set containing the two largest elements of , and so on.
