  2. Sizing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sizing

    Sizing or size is a substance that is applied to, or incorporated into, other materials—especially papers and textiles—to act as a protective filler or glaze. Sizing is used in papermaking and textile manufacturing to change the absorption and wear characteristics of those materials.

  4. Adaptive step size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_step_size

    In mathematics and numerical analysis, an adaptive step size is used in some methods for the numerical solution of ordinary differential equations (including the special case of numerical integration) in order to control the errors of the method and to ensure stability properties such as A-stability. Using an adaptive stepsize is of particular ...

    Depending on authors, the term "maps" or the term "functions" may be reserved for specific kinds of functions or morphisms (e.g., function as an analytic term and map as a general term). mathematics See mathematics. multivalued A "multivalued function” from a set A to a set B is a function from A to the subsets of B.

  6. Size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Size

    Size can also be measured in terms of mass, especially when assuming a density range. This animation gives a sense of the scale of some of the known objects in our universe. In mathematical terms, "size is a concept abstracted from the process of measuring by comparing a longer to a shorter". [1]

  7. Desizing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desizing

    Desizing, irrespective of what the desizing agent is, involves impregnation of the fabric with the desizing agent, allowing the desizing agent to degrade or solubilise the size material, and finally to wash out the degradation products. The major desizing processes are: Enzymatic desizing of starches on cotton fabrics; Oxidative desizing; Acid ...

  8. Particle-size distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle-size_distribution

    The log-normal distribution is often used to approximate the particle size distribution of aerosols, aquatic particles and pulverized material. The Weibull distribution or Rosin–Rammler distribution is a useful distribution for representing particle size distributions generated by grinding, milling and crushing operations.
