Chemical engineering, material science, mechanics (A scale to show the energy needed for detaching two solid particles) [33] [34] Cost of transport: COT = energy efficiency, economics (ratio of energy input to kinetic motion) Damping ratio
The item-total correlation approach is a way of identifying a group of questions whose responses can be combined into a single measure or scale. This is a simple approach that works by ensuring that, when considered across a whole population, responses to the questions in the group tend to vary together and, in particular, that responses to no individual question are poorly related to an ...
Nondimensionalization is the partial or full removal of physical dimensions from an equation involving physical quantities by a suitable substitution of variables.This technique can simplify and parameterize problems where measured units are involved.
Elasticity is the measurement of the proportional change of an economic variable in response to a change in another; Basic reproduction number is a dimensionless ratio used in epidemiology to quantify the transmissibility of an infection.
Manasseh Wepundi noted the difference between "the unit of analysis, that is the phenomenon about which generalizations are to be made, that which each 'case' in the data file represents and the level of analysis, that is, the manner in which the units of analysis can be arrayed on a continuum from the very small (micro) to very large (macro ...
From April 2009 to December 2012, if you bought shares in companies when William S. Thompson, Jr. joined the board, and sold them when he left, you would have a 22.1 percent return on your investment, compared to a 67.8 percent return from the S&P 500.
Values for standardized and unstandardized coefficients can also be re-scaled to one another subsequent to either type of analysis. Suppose that β {\displaystyle \beta } is the regression coefficient resulting from a linear regression (predicting y {\displaystyle y} by x {\displaystyle x} ).
From June 2010 to December 2012, if you bought shares in companies when Matthew E. Rubel joined the board, and sold them when he left, you would have a -79.6 percent return on your investment, compared to a 32.8 percent return from the S&P 500.
