  2. Low thrust relative orbital transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_thrust_relative...

    Low-thrust relative transfer uses the orbital relative motion equations which are the non-linear set of equations that describes the motion of the chaser spacecraft relative to the target in terms of displacements along the respective axis of the accelerated frame of reference fixed on the target spacecraft.

  3. Error analysis for the Global Positioning System - Wikipedia

    These problems tend to be very small, but may add up to a few meters (tens of feet) of inaccuracy. [7] For very precise positioning (e.g., in geodesy), these effects can be eliminated by differential GPS: the simultaneous use of two or more receivers at several survey points.

  4. Satellite navigation solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_navigation_solution

    Satellite navigation solution for the receiver's position (geopositioning) involves an algorithm.In essence, a GNSS receiver measures the transmitting time of GNSS signals emitted from four or more GNSS satellites (giving the pseudorange) and these measurements are used to obtain its position (i.e., spatial coordinates) and reception time.

  5. Symmetric mean absolute percentage error - Wikipedia

    One supposed problem with SMAPE is that it is not symmetric since over- and under-forecasts are not treated equally. The following example illustrates this by applying the second SMAPE formula: Over-forecasting: A t = 100 and F t = 110 give SMAPE = 4.76%; Under-forecasting: A t = 100 and F t = 90 give SMAPE = 5.26%.

  6. Runge's phenomenon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runge's_phenomenon

    Runge's phenomenon is the consequence of two properties of this problem. The magnitude of the n-th order derivatives of this particular function grows quickly when n increases. The equidistance between points leads to a Lebesgue constant that increases quickly when n increases.

  7. Total least squares - Wikipedia

    As was shown in 1980 by Golub and Van Loan, the TLS problem does not have a solution in general. [4] The following considers the simple case where a unique solution exists without making any particular assumptions. The computation of the TLS using singular value decomposition (SVD) is described in standard texts. [5] We can solve the equation

  8. Tolerance analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tolerance_analysis

    Tolerance analysis is the general term for activities related to the study of accumulated variation in mechanical parts and assemblies. Its methods may be used on other types of systems subject to accumulated variation, such as mechanical and electrical systems.

  9. Singular perturbation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singular_perturbation

    A perturbed problem whose solution can be approximated on the whole problem domain, whether space or time, by a single asymptotic expansion has a regular perturbation.Most often in applications, an acceptable approximation to a regularly perturbed problem is found by simply replacing the small parameter by zero everywhere in the problem statement.
