  2. Statistical energy analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_energy_analysis

    Statistical energy analysis (SEA) is a method for predicting the transmission of sound and vibration through complex structural acoustic systems. The method is particularly well suited for quick system level response predictions at the early design stage of a product, and for predicting responses at higher frequencies.

  3. Platinum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platinum

    Platinum is a chemical element; it has symbol Pt and atomic number 78. It is a dense, malleable, ductile, highly unreactive, precious, silverish-white transition metal. Its name originates from Spanish platina, a diminutive of plata "silver". [7] [8] Platinum is a member of the platinum group of elements and group 10 of the periodic table of ...

  4. Colors of noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colors_of_noise

    Colored noise can be computer-generated by first generating a white noise signal, Fourier-transforming it, then multiplying the amplitudes of the different frequency components with a frequency-dependent function. [26] Matlab programs are available to generate power-law colored noise in one or any number of dimensions.

  5. Platinum group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platinum_group

    The platinum-group metals [a] (PGMs) are six noble, precious metallic elements clustered together in the periodic table. These elements are all transition metals in the d-block (groups 8, 9, and 10, periods 5 and 6). [1] The six platinum-group metals are ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, osmium, iridium, and platinum.

  6. Wiener deconvolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiener_deconvolution

    Here, / is the inverse of the original system, = / is the signal-to-noise ratio, and | | is the ratio of the pure filtered signal to noise spectral density. When there is zero noise (i.e. infinite signal-to-noise), the term inside the square brackets equals 1, which means that the Wiener filter is simply the inverse of the system, as we might ...

  7. Shot noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shot_noise

    Shot noise or Poisson noise is a type of noise which can be modeled by a Poisson process. In electronics shot noise originates from the discrete nature of electric charge . Shot noise also occurs in photon counting in optical devices, where shot noise is associated with the particle nature of light.

  8. Aeroacoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeroacoustics

    Aeroacoustics is a branch of acoustics that studies noise generation via either turbulent fluid motion or aerodynamic forces interacting with surfaces. Noise generation can also be associated with periodically varying flows. A notable example of this phenomenon is the Aeolian tones produced by wind blowing over fixed objects.

  9. Material point method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_Point_Method

    The material point method (MPM) is a numerical technique used to simulate the behavior of solids, liquids, gases, and any other continuum material. Especially, it is a robust spatial discretization method for simulating multi-phase (solid-fluid-gas) interactions.
