  2. Modular arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_arithmetic

    Adding 4 hours to 9 o'clock gives 1 o'clock, since 13 is congruent to 1 modulo 12. In mathematics, modular arithmetic is a system of arithmetic for integers, where numbers "wrap around" when reaching a certain value, called the modulus. The modern approach to modular arithmetic was developed by Carl Friedrich Gauss in his book Disquisitiones ...

  3. Modulo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulo

    The properties involving multiplication, division, and exponentiation generally require that a and n are integers. Identity: (a mod n) mod n = a mod n. nx mod n = 0 for all positive integer values of x. If p is a prime number which is not a divisor of b, then abp−1 mod p = a mod p, due to Fermat's little theorem.

  4. Rule of mixtures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_mixtures

    In materials science, a general rule of mixtures is a weighted mean used to predict various properties of a composite material . [1][2][3] It provides a theoretical upper- and lower-bound on properties such as the elastic modulus, ultimate tensile strength, thermal conductivity, and electrical conductivity. [3]

  5. Modulo (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Modulo is a mathematical jargon that was introduced into mathematics in the book Disquisitiones Arithmeticae by Carl Friedrich Gauss in 1801. [3] Given the integers a, b and n, the expression "a ≡ b (mod n)", pronounced "a is congruent to b modulo n", means that a − b is an integer multiple of n, or equivalently, a and b both share the same remainder when divided by n.

  6. Tangent modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangent_modulus

    In solid mechanics, the tangent modulus is the slope of the stress – strain curve at any specified stress or strain. Below the proportional limit (the limit of the linear elastic regime) the tangent modulus is equivalent to Young's modulus. Above the proportional limit the tangent modulus varies with strain and is most accurately found from ...

  7. Shear modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_modulus

    G = τ / γ = E / [2 (1 + ν)] Shear strain. In materials science, shear modulus or modulus of rigidity, denoted by G, or sometimes S or μ, is a measure of the elastic shear stiffness of a material and is defined as the ratio of shear stress to the shear strain: [1] where. = shear stress. is the force which acts. is the area on which the force ...

  8. Mathematics of cyclic redundancy checks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics_of_cyclic...

    Mathematics of cyclic redundancy checks. The cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is based on division in the ring of polynomials over the finite field GF (2) (the integers modulo 2), that is, the set of polynomials where each coefficient is either zero or one, and arithmetic operations wrap around. Any string of bits can be interpreted as the ...

  9. Four-point flexural test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-point_flexural_test

    The four-point flexural test provides values for the modulus of elasticity in bending , flexural stress , flexural strain and the flexural stress-strain response of the material. This test is very similar to the three-point bending flexural test. The major difference being that with the addition of a fourth bearing the portion of the beam ...
