The stretch factor of the whole mapping is the supremum of the stretch factors of all pairs of points. The stretch factor has also been called the distortion [disputed – discuss] or dilation of the mapping. The stretch factor is important in the theory of geometric spanners, weighted graphs that approximate the Euclidean distances between a ...
In engineering and materials science, a stress–strain curve for a material gives the relationship between stress and strain.It is obtained by gradually applying load to a test coupon and measuring the deformation, from which the stress and strain can be determined (see tensile testing).
In continuum mechanics, stress triaxiality is the relative degree of hydrostatic stress in a given stress state. [1] It is often used as a triaxiality factor, T.F, which is the ratio of the hydrostatic stress, , to the Von Mises equivalent stress, .
If an embedding maps all pairs of vertices with distance to pairs of vectors with distance in the range [,] then its stretch factor or distortion is the ratio /; an isometry has stretch factor one, and all other embeddings have greater stretch factor. [1] The graphs that have an embedding with at most a given distortion are closed under graph ...
For example, the graph of y = A sin(x) + B cos(x) can be obtained from the graph of y = sin(x) by translating it through an angle α along the positive X axis (where tan(α) = A ⁄ B), then stretching it parallel to the Y axis using a stretch factor R, where R 2 = A 2 + B 2.
The stretch ratio or extension ratio (symbol λ) is an alternative measure related to the extensional or normal strain of an axially loaded differential line element. It is defined as the ratio between the final length l and the initial length L of the material line.
Greedy geometric spanner of 100 random points with stretch factor t = 2 Greedy geometric spanner of the same points with stretch factor t = 1.1. In computational geometry, a greedy geometric spanner is an undirected graph whose distances approximate the Euclidean distances among a finite set of points in a Euclidean space.
with a corresponding factor graph shown on the right. Observe that the factor graph has a cycle. If we merge (,) (,) into a single factor, the resulting factor graph will be a tree. This is an important distinction, as message passing algorithms are usually exact for trees, but only approximate for graphs with cycles.
