central difference formula
1Différence finie — En mathématique, une différence finie est une expression de la forme f(x + b) − f(x + a). (où f est une fonction numérique) ; la même expression divisée par b − a s appelle un taux d accroissement (ou taux de… …
2Finite difference — A finite difference is a mathematical expression of the form f(x + b) − f(x + a). If a finite difference is divided by b − a, one gets a difference quotient. The approximation of derivatives by finite differences… …
3Finite difference method — In mathematics, finite difference methods are numerical methods for approximating the solutions to differential equations using finite difference equations to approximate derivatives. Intuitive derivation Finite difference methods approximate the …
4Classical central-force problem — In classical mechanics, the central force problem is to determine the motion of a particle under the influence of a single central force. A central force is a force that points from the particle directly towards (or directly away from) a fixed… …
5Normalized Difference Vegetation Index — Negative values of NDVI (values approaching 1) correspond to water. Values close to zero ( 0.1 to 0.1) generally correspond to barren areas of rock, sand, or snow. Lastly, low, positive values represent shrub and grassland (approximately 0.2 to 0 …
6Roman Catholicism — the faith, practice, and system of government of the Roman Catholic Church. [1815 25] * * * Largest single Christian denomination in the world, with some one billion members, or about 18% of the world s population. The Roman Catholic church has… …
7Kalman filter — Roles of the variables in the Kalman filter. (Larger image here) In statistics, the Kalman filter is a mathematical method named after Rudolf E. Kálmán. Its purpose is to use measurements observed over time, containing noise (random variations)… …
8Five-point stencil — In numerical analysis, given a square grid in one or two dimensions, the five point stencil of a point in the grid is made up of the point itself together with its four neighbors . It is used to write finite difference approximations to… …
9Aerodynamics — is a branch of dynamics concerned with studying the motion of air, particularly when it interacts with a moving object. Aerodynamics is closely related to fluid dynamics and gas dynamics, with much theory shared between them. Aerodynamics is… …
10Computational electromagnetics — Computational electromagnetics, computational electrodynamics or electromagnetic modeling is the process of modeling the interaction of electromagnetic fields with physical objects and the environment. It typically involves using computationally… …
