  2. Weber number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weber_number

    The Weber number appears in the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations through a free surface boundary condition. [ 3 ] For a fluid of constant density ρ {\displaystyle \rho } and dynamic viscosity μ {\displaystyle \mu } , at the free surface interface there is a balance between the normal stress and the curvature force associated with the ...

  3. Biasing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biasing

    Class B vacuum tube amplifiers are usually operated with grid current (class B 2). The bias voltage source must have low resistance and be able to supply the grid current. [3] When tubes designed for class B are employed, the bias can be as little as zero. Class C amplifiers are biased negatively at a point well beyond plate current cutoff ...

  4. Bias of an estimator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bias_of_an_estimator

    Bias is a distinct concept from consistency: consistent estimators converge in probability to the true value of the parameter, but may be biased or unbiased (see bias versus consistency for more). All else being equal, an unbiased estimator is preferable to a biased estimator, although in practice, biased estimators (with generally small bias ...

  5. Tape bias - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tape_bias

    Tape bias is the term for two techniques, AC bias and DC bias, that improve the fidelity of analogue tape recorders. DC bias is the addition of direct current to the audio signal that is being recorded. AC bias is the addition of an inaudible high-frequency signal (generally from 40 to 150 kHz) to the audio signal. Most contemporary tape ...

  6. Exponent bias - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponent_bias

    When interpreting the floating-point number, the bias is subtracted to retrieve the actual exponent. For a half-precision number, the exponent is stored in the range 1 .. 30 (0 and 31 have special meanings), and is interpreted by subtracting the bias for an 5-bit exponent (15) to get an exponent value in the range −14 .. +15.

  8. Bias (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bias_(statistics)

    Detection bias occurs when a phenomenon is more likely to be observed for a particular set of study subjects. For instance, the syndemic involving obesity and diabetes may mean doctors are more likely to look for diabetes in obese patients than in thinner patients, leading to an inflation in diabetes among obese patients because of skewed detection efforts.

  9. Display contrast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_contrast

    The "luminance contrast" is the ratio between the higher luminance, L H, and the lower luminance, L L, that define the feature to be detected.This ratio, often called contrast ratio, CR, (actually being a luminance ratio), is often used for high luminances and for specification of the contrast of electronic visual display devices.
