  3. Weight distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weight_distribution

    Typically, it is written in the form x/y, where x is the percentage of weight in the front, and y is the percentage in the back. In a vehicle which relies on gravity in some way, weight distribution directly affects a variety of vehicle characteristics, including handling , acceleration , traction , and component life.

    Small, single-sided MDF for a military base, 1940s Modern main distribution frame MDF at a central office with capacity for 67,000 users. In telephony, a main distribution frame (MDF or main frame) is a signal distribution frame for connecting equipment (inside plant) to cables and subscriber carrier equipment (outside plant).

  5. Earthing system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthing_system

    Three-phase HV/MV power transformers, located in distribution substations, are the most common source of supply for distribution networks, and type of grounding of their neutral determines the earthing system. There are five types of neutral earthing: [26] Solid-earthed neutral; Unearthed neutral; Resistance-earthed neutral. Low-resistance earthing

  6. Exponential distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_distribution

    In probability theory and statistics, the exponential distribution or negative exponential distribution is the probability distribution of the distance between events in a Poisson point process, i.e., a process in which events occur continuously and independently at a constant average rate; the distance parameter could be any meaningful mono-dimensional measure of the process, such as time ...
