  2. Radar chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_chart

    For example, in a chart with 5 variables that range from 1 to 100, the area contained by the polygon bounded by 5 points when all measures are 90, is more than 10% larger than the same for a chart with all values of 82. Radar charts can also become hard to visually compare between different samples on the chart when their values are close as ...

  3. Euler's critical load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_critical_load

    The cross-section of the column is uniform throughout its length. The direct stress is very small as compared to the bending stress (the material is compressed only within the elastic range of strains). The length of the column is very large as compared to the cross-sectional dimensions of the column. The column fails only by buckling.

  4. Misleading graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misleading_graph

    Log scales put the data values in terms of a chosen number (the base of the log) to a particular power. The base is often e (2.71828...) or 10. For example, log scales may give a height of 1 for a value of 10 in the data and a height of 6 for a value of 1,000,000 (10 6) in the data. Log scales and variants are commonly used, for instance, for ...

  5. Johnson's parabolic formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnson's_parabolic_formula

    The slenderness ratio is an indicator of the specimen's resistance to bending and buckling, due to its length and cross section. If the slenderness ratio is less than the critical slenderness ratio, the column is considered to be a short column. In these cases, the Johnson parabola is more applicable than the Euler formula.

  6. Statistical graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistical_graphics

    Statistical graphics have been central to the development of science and date to the earliest attempts to analyse data. Many familiar forms, including bivariate plots, statistical maps, bar charts, and coordinate paper were used in the 18th century. Statistical graphics developed through attention to four problems: [3]

  7. Buckling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckling

    A short steel column is one whose slenderness ratio does not exceed 50; an intermediate length steel column has a slenderness ratio ranging from about 50 to 200, and its behavior is dominated by the strength limit of the material, while a long steel column may be assumed to have a slenderness ratio greater than 200 and its behavior is dominated ...

  8. Variable-length array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-length_array

    In computer programming, a variable-length array (VLA), also called variable-sized or runtime-sized, is an array data structure whose length is determined at runtime, instead of at compile time. [1] In the language C , the VLA is said to have a variably modified data type that depends on a value (see Dependent type ).

  9. Skewness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skewness

    Similarly, we can make the sequence positively skewed by adding a value far above the mean, which is probably a positive outlier, e.g. (49, 50, 51, 60), where the mean is 52.5, and the median is 50.5. As mentioned earlier, a unimodal distribution with zero value of skewness does not imply that this distribution is symmetric necessarily.
