  2. Polybenzimidazole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polybenzimidazole

    Polybenzimidazole (PBI, short for poly[2,2’-(m-phenylen)-5,5’-bisbenzimidazole]) fiber is a synthetic fiber with a very high decomposition temperature. It does not exhibit a melting point , it has exceptional thermal and chemical stability, and it does not readily ignite. [ 1 ]

  3. CUSUM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUSUM

    In statistical quality control, the CUSUM (or cumulative sum control chart) is a sequential analysis technique developed by E. S. Page of the University of Cambridge. It is typically used for monitoring change detection. [1] CUSUM was announced in Biometrika, in 1954, a few years after the publication of Wald's sequential probability ratio test ...

  4. Rule of 78s - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_78s

    The denominator of a Rule of 78s loan is the sum of the integers between 1 and n, inclusive, where n is the number of payments. For a twelve-month loan, the sum of numbers from 1 to 12 is 78 (1 + 2 + 3 + . . . +12 = 78). For a 24-month loan, the denominator is 300. The sum of the numbers from 1 to n is given by the equation n * (n+1) / 2.

    Define the "reverse time" variable z = T − t.(t = 0, z = T and t = T, z = 0).Then: Plotted on a time axis normalized to system time constant (τ = 1/r years and τ = RC seconds respectively) the mortgage balance function in a CRM (green) is a mirror image of the step response curve for an RC circuit (blue).The vertical axis is normalized to system asymptote i.e. perpetuity value M a /r for ...

  6. Cumulant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumulant

    The cumulative property follows quickly by considering the cumulant-generating function: + + = ⁡ ⁡ [(+ +)] = ⁡ (⁡ [] ⁡ []) = ⁡ ⁡ [] + + ⁡ ⁡ [] = + + (), so that each cumulant of a sum of independent random variables is the sum of the corresponding cumulants of the addends. That is, when the addends are statistically ...

  7. Summation by parts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation_by_parts

    The formula for an integration by parts is () ′ = [() ()] ′ (). Beside the boundary conditions , we notice that the first integral contains two multiplied functions, one which is integrated in the final integral ( g ′ {\displaystyle g'} becomes g {\displaystyle g} ) and one which is differentiated ( f {\displaystyle f} becomes f ...

  8. Payback period - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Payback_period

    n= The value of cumulative cash flow at which the last negative value of cumulative cash flow occurs. p= The value of cash flow at which the first positive value of cumulative cash flow occurs. This formula can only be used to calculate the soonest payback period; that is, the first period after which the investment has paid for itself.

    In investment, an annuity is a series of payments made at equal intervals. [1] Examples of annuities are regular deposits to a savings account, monthly home mortgage payments, monthly insurance payments and pension payments.
