linear theory
51Linear castle — A linear castle is a castle that was designed to confront its attackers with a series of barriers/impediments in a line (hence the name).The principle was to funnel assaulting forces into attacking a very narrow front and focusing all of the… …
52Linear rückgekoppeltes Schieberegister — Ein linear rückgekoppeltes Schieberegister (engl. Linear Feedback Shift Register, kurz LFSR) ist ein rückgekoppeltes Schieberegister, das zur Erzeugung von streng deterministischen Pseudozufallszahlenfolgen eingesetzt werden kann. Zur… …
53linear algebra — noun Date: 1870 a branch of mathematics that is concerned with mathematical structures closed under the operations of addition and scalar multiplication and that includes the theory of systems of linear equations, matrices, determinants, vector… …
54linear approximation — In mathematics, the process of finding a straight line that closely fits a curve (function) at some location. Expressed as the linear equation y = ax + b, the values of a and b are chosen so that the line meets the curve at the chosen location,… …
55Theory of two-level planning — The Theory of two level planning, better known in the West as the Kornai Liptak decomposition, is a method for the decomposition of large linear programs into sub problems so as to make the solution of the overall problem easier. It provides a… …
56Theory of tides — The theory of tides is the application of continuum mechanics to interpret and predict the tidal deformations of planetary and satellite bodies and their atmospheres and oceans, under the gravitational loading of another astronomical body or… …
57Airy wave theory — In fluid dynamics, Airy wave theory (often referred to as linear wave theory) gives a linearised description of the propagation of gravity waves on the surface of a homogeneous fluid layer. The theory assumes that the fluid layer has a uniform… …
58Chaos theory — This article is about chaos theory in Mathematics. For other uses of Chaos theory, see Chaos Theory (disambiguation). For other uses of Chaos, see Chaos (disambiguation). A plot of the Lorenz attractor for values r = 28, σ = 10, b = 8/3 …
59Scalar field theory — In theoretical physics, scalar field theory can refer to a classical or quantum theory of scalar fields. A field which is invariant under any Lorentz transformation is called a scalar , in contrast to a vector or tensor field. The quanta of the… …
60Development theory — is a conglomeration of theories about how desirable change in society is best to be achieved. Such theories draw on a variety of social scientific disciplines and approaches. Contents 1 Historical development theories 1.1 Modernization theory 1.2 …
