  2. Small arms ammunition pressure testing - Wikipedia

    The defined distance for a particular chambering is published in the TDCC data sheet of the chambering. In a rifle cartridge case like the .308 Winchester, the TDCC M = 25.00 value denotes the transducer must be positioned at a distance of 25 millimetres (0.98 in) from the breech face. [2]

  3. Hand formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_formula

    In the case when the probability of loss is assumed to be a single number , and is the loss from the event occurring, the familiar form of the Hand formula is recovered. More generally, for continuous outcomes the Hand formula takes form: ∫ Ω L f ( L ) d L > B {\displaystyle \int _{\Omega }Lf(L)dL>B} where Ω {\displaystyle \Omega } is the ...

  4. Bolt thrust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolt_thrust

    A complicating matter regarding bolt thrust is that a cartridge case expands and deforms under high pressure and starts to "stick" to the chamber. This "friction-effect" can be accounted for with finite elements calculations on a computer, but it is a lot of specialized work and generally not worth the trouble. [2]

  6. With high probability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/With_high_probability

    In mathematics, an event that occurs with high probability (often shortened to w.h.p. or WHP) is one whose probability depends on a certain number n and goes to 1 as n goes to infinity, i.e. the probability of the event occurring can be made as close to 1 as desired by making n big enough.

  7. Pre- and post-test probability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pre-_and_post-test_probability

    In clinical practice, post-test probabilities are often just estimated or even guessed. This is usually acceptable in the finding of a pathognomonic sign or symptom, in which case it is almost certain that the target condition is present; or in the absence of finding a sine qua non sign or symptom, in which case it is almost certain that the target condition is absent.

  8. Help:Displaying a formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Displaying_a_formula

    Spaces within a formula must be directly managed (for example by including explicit hair or thin spaces). Variable names must be italicized explicitly, and superscripts and subscripts must use an explicit tag or template. Except for short formulas, the source of a formula typically has more markup overhead and can be difficult to read.

  9. Frequency of exceedance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_of_exceedance

    is the probability of exceedance, the probability that y max has been exceeded at least once by time t. [ 7 ] [ 8 ] This probability can be useful to estimate whether an extreme event will occur during a specified time period, such as the lifespan of a structure or the duration of an operation.
