  2. Direct stiffness method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_stiffness_method

    The direct stiffness method is the most common implementation of the finite element method (FEM). In applying the method, the system must be modeled as a set of simpler, idealized elements interconnected at the nodes. The material stiffness properties of these elements are then, through matrix mathematics, compiled into a single matrix equation ...

  3. Dynamic array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_array

    The elements of the dynamic array are stored contiguously at the start of the underlying array, and the remaining positions towards the end of the underlying array are reserved, or unused. Elements can be added at the end of a dynamic array in constant time by using the reserved space, until this space is completely consumed. When all space is ...

  4. Matrix (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_(mathematics)

    Matrix (mathematics) An m × n matrix: the m rows are horizontal and the n columns are vertical. Each element of a matrix is often denoted by a variable with two subscripts. For example, a2,1 represents the element at the second row and first column of the matrix. In mathematics, a matrix (pl.: matrices) is a rectangular array or table of ...

  5. Array (data structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_(data_structure)

    In computer science, an array is a data structure consisting of a collection of elements (values or variables), of same memory size, each identified by at least one array index or key. An array is stored such that the position of each element can be computed from its index tuple by a mathematical formula. [1][2][3] The simplest type of data ...

  6. List comprehension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_comprehension

    Here, the list [0..] represents , x^2>3 represents the predicate, and 2*x represents the output expression.. List comprehensions give results in a defined order (unlike the members of sets); and list comprehensions may generate the members of a list in order, rather than produce the entirety of the list thus allowing, for example, the previous Haskell definition of the members of an infinite list.

  7. Sparse matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparse_matrix

    A sparse matrix obtained when solving a finite element problem in two dimensions. The non-zero elements are shown in black. In numerical analysis and scientific computing, a sparse matrix or sparse array is a matrix in which most of the elements are zero. [1] There is no strict definition regarding the proportion of zero-value elements for a ...

  8. Array programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_programming

    Array programming. In computer science, array programming refers to solutions that allow the application of operations to an entire set of values at once. Such solutions are commonly used in scientific and engineering settings. Modern programming languages that support array programming (also known as vector or multidimensional languages) have ...

  9. Linked list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linked_list

    A linked list is a sequence of nodes that contain two fields: data (an integer value here as an example) and a link to the next node. The last node is linked to a terminator used to signify the end of the list. In computer science, a linked list is a linear collection of data elements whose order is not given by their physical placement in memory.
