51Truncated icosahedron — The truncated icosahedron is an Archimedean solid. It comprises 12 regular pentagonal faces, 20 regular hexagonal faces, 60 vertices and 90 edges. Construction This polyhedron can be constructed from an icosahedron with the 12 vertices truncated… …
52Eigenvalue, eigenvector and eigenspace — In mathematics, given a linear transformation, an Audio|De eigenvector.ogg|eigenvector of that linear transformation is a nonzero vector which, when that transformation is applied to it, changes in length, but not direction. For each eigenvector… …
53History of general purpose CPUs — The history of general purpose CPUs is a continuation of the earlier history of computing hardware. 1950s: early designs Each of the computer designs of the early 1950s was a unique design; there were no upward compatible machines or computer… …
54QR decomposition — In linear algebra, the QR decomposition (also called the QR factorization) of a matrix is a decomposition of the matrix into an orthogonal and a right triangular matrix. The QR decomposition is often used to solve the linear least squares problem …
55Eigenvalues and eigenvectors — For more specific information regarding the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of matrices, see Eigendecomposition of a matrix. In this shear mapping the red arrow changes direction but the blue arrow does not. Therefore the blue arrow is an… …
56Tidal power — Tidal power, sometimes called tidal energy, is a form of hydropower that converts the energy of tides into electricity or other useful forms of power.Although not yet widely used, tidal power has potential for future electricity generation. Tides …
57Quantum cryptography — Quantum cryptography, or quantum key distribution (QKD), uses quantum mechanics to guarantee secure communication. It enables two parties to produce a shared random bit string known only to them, which can be used as a key to encrypt and decrypt… …
