  2. Extreme value theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_value_theory

    Extreme value theory or extreme value analysis (EVA) is the study of extremes in statistical distributions. It is widely used in many disciplines, such as structural engineering , finance , economics , earth sciences , traffic prediction, and geological engineering .

  3. Crest factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crest_factor

    The peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is the peak amplitude squared (giving the peak power) divided by the RMS value squared (giving the average power). [1] It is the square of the crest factor. When expressed in decibels , crest factor and PAPR are equivalent, due to the way decibels are calculated for power ratios vs amplitude ratios .

  4. Ripple (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple_(electrical)

    Various properties of ripple voltage may be important depending on application: the equation of the ripple for Fourier analysis to determine the constituent harmonics; the peak (usually peak-to-peak) value of the voltage; the root mean square (RMS) value of the voltage which is a component of power transmitted; the ripple factor γ, the ratio ...

  5. Signal-to-noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio

    Assuming a full-scale sine wave signal (that is, the quantizer is designed such that it has the same minimum and maximum values as the input signal), the quantization noise approximates a sawtooth wave with peak-to-peak amplitude of one quantization level [11] and uniform distribution. In this case, the SNR is approximately

  6. K factor (traffic engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K_factor_(traffic_engineering)

    The calculation for the K factor is given by the formula: DHV= K*AADT. in which DHV is the "Design Hourly Volume," the 30th highest hourly traffic volume (in both directions) in the year in which data was collected, by vehicles per hour. [4]

  7. Peak signal-to-noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_signal-to-noise_ratio

    Peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) is an engineering term for the ratio between the maximum possible power of a signal and the power of corrupting noise that affects the fidelity of its representation.

  8. Cyclic voltammetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_voltammetry

    The difference between the two peak potentials (E p), ΔE p, is of particular interest. ΔE p = E pa - E pc > 0. This difference mainly results from the effects of analyte diffusion rates. In the ideal case of a reversible 1e- couple (i.e., Nernstian), ΔE p is 57 mV and the full-width half-max of the forward scan peak is 59 mV. Typical values ...

  9. Response spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Response_spectrum

    Modal analysis is performed to identify the modes, and the response in that mode can be picked from the response spectrum. These peak responses are then combined to estimate a total response. A typical combination method is the square root of the sum of the squares (SRSS) if the modal frequencies are not close.
