Vibration (from Latin vibrāre 'to shake') is a mechanical phenomenon whereby oscillations occur about an equilibrium point.Vibration may be deterministic if the oscillations can be characterised precisely (e.g. the periodic motion of a pendulum), or random if the oscillations can only be analysed statistically (e.g. the movement of a tire on a gravel road).

The pascal (symbol: Pa) is the unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI).It is also used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus, and ultimate tensile strength.
Color quality scale (CQS) is a color rendering score – a quantitative measure of the ability of a light source to reproduce colors of illuminated objects. Developed by researchers at NIST [1] the metric aims to overcome some of the issues inherent in the widely used color rendering index (CIE Ra, 1974).
This definition encompasses random variables that are generated by processes that are discrete, continuous, neither, or mixed. The variance can also be thought of as the covariance of a random variable with itself:
