4Residence Time Distribution — The residence time distribution (RTD) of a chemical reactor is a probability distribution function that describes the amount of time a fluid elements could spend inside the reactor. Chemical engineers use the RTD to characterize the mixing and… …
5Molar mass distribution — In linear polymers the individual polymer chains rarely have exactly the same degree of polymerization and molar mass, and there is always a distribution around an average value. The molar mass distribution (or molecular weight distribution) in a …
6Normal distribution — This article is about the univariate normal distribution. For normally distributed vectors, see Multivariate normal distribution. Probability density function The red line is the standard normal distribution Cumulative distribution function …
7Bézier curve — Cubic Bézier curve A Bézier curve is a parametric curve frequently used in computer graphics and related fields. Generalizations of Bézier curves to higher dimensions are called Bézier surfaces, of which the Bézier triangle is a special case. In… …
8Galaxy rotation curve — The rotation curve of a galaxy can be represented by a graph that plots the orbital velocity of the stars or gas in the galaxy on the y axis against the distance from the center of the galaxy on the x axis. Stars revolve around the center of… …
