102Stationary spacetime — In general relativity, a spacetime is said to be stationary if it admits a global, nowhere zero timelike Killing vector field. In a stationary spacetime, the metric tensor components, g {mu u}, may be chosen so that they are all independent of… …
103Covariance and correlation — Main articles: covariance, correlation. In probability theory and statistics, the mathematical descriptions of covariance and correlation are very similar.[1][2] Both describe the degree of similarity between two random variables or sets of… …
104Salinity control — relates to controlling the problem of soil salinity and reclaiming salinized agricultural land. The aim of soil salinity control is to prevent soil degradation by salinization and reclaim already salty (saline) soils. Soil reclamation is also… …
105Phonon — For KDE Software Compilation 4 s multimedia framework, see Phonon (KDE). Normal modes of vibration progression through a crystal. The amplitude of the motion has been exaggerated for ease of viewing; in an actual crystal, it is typically much… …

107Push inventory — Philosophy of inventory where supply (inventory) is allocated from the production site to the warehouses based on the forecast for each warehouse. This method can best be applied when production quantities exceed the short term quantities of… …
108Absorption (electromagnetic radiation) — An overview of electromagnetic radiation absorption. This example discusses the general principle using visible light as specific example. A white beam source emitting light of multiple wavelengths is focused on a sample (the complementary color… …
109Yield surface — A yield surface is a five dimensional surface in the six dimensional space of stresses. The state of stress of inside the yield surface is elastic. When the stress state lies on the surface the material is said to have reached its yield point and …
110D'Agostino's K-squared test — In statistics, D’Agostino’s K2 test is a goodness of fit measure of departure from normality, that is the test aims to establish whether or not the given sample comes from a normally distributed population. The test is based on transformations of …
