41Integer square root — In number theory, the integer square root (isqrt) of a positive integer n is the positive integer m which is the greatest integer less than or equal to the square root of n ,: mbox{isqrt}( n ) = lfloor sqrt n floor.For example, mbox{isqrt}(27) =… …
42Rate of convergence — In numerical analysis, the speed at which a convergent sequence approaches its limit is called the rate of convergence. Although strictly speaking, a limit does not give information about any finite first part of the sequence, this concept is of… …
43Chirplet transform — Comparison of wave, wavelet, chirp, and chirplet In signal processing, the chirplet transform is an inner product of an input signal with a family of analysis primitives called chirplets. Contents …
44Birch–Murnaghan equation of state — In continuum mechanics, an equation of state suitable for modeling solids is naturally rather different from the ideal gas law. A solid has a certain equilibrium volume V0, and the energy increases quadratically as volume is increased or… …
45Balance shaft — In piston engine engineering, a balance shaft is an eccentric weighted shaft which offsets vibrations in engine designs that are not inherently balanced (for example, most four cylinder engines). They were first invented by British engineer… …
46NL (complexity) — In computational complexity theory, NL (Nondeterministic Logarithmic space) is the complexity class containing decision problems which can be solved by a nondeterministic Turing machine using a logarithmic amount of memory space. NL is a… …
47Newton's method in optimization — A comparison of gradient descent (green) and Newton s method (red) for minimizing a function (with small step sizes). Newton s method uses curvature information to take a more direct route. In mathematics, Newton s method is an iterative method… …
48Dual-thrust — In a dual thrust solid fuel rocket motor, the propellant mass is composed of two different types or densities of fuel. In the case of a tandem dual thrust motor, the fuel closest to the rocket nozzle burns fast and the fuel further into the motor …
49Convex optimization — Convex minimization, a subfield of optimization, studies the problem of minimizing convex functions over convex sets. Given a real vector space X together with a convex, real valued function defined on a convex subset of X, the problem is to find …
