  2. Series and parallel springs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_springs

    The following table gives formula for the spring that is equivalent to a system of two springs, in series or in parallel, whose spring constants are and . [1] The compliance c {\displaystyle c} of a spring is the reciprocal 1 / k {\displaystyle 1/k} of its spring constant.)

  3. Distance between two parallel lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_between_two...

    The distance between two parallel lines in the plane is the minimum distance between any two points. Formula and proof. Because the lines are parallel, the ...

  4. Parallel curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_curve

    A parallel of a curve is the envelope of a family of congruent circles centered on the curve. It generalises the concept of parallel (straight) lines.

  5. Analysis of parallel algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analysis_of_parallel...

    In many respects, analysis of parallel algorithms is similar to the analysis of sequential algorithms, but is generally more involved because one must reason about the behavior of multiple cooperating threads of execution. One of the primary goals of parallel analysis is to understand how a parallel algorithm's use of resources (speed, space ...

  6. Amdahl's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amdahl's_law

    An implication of Amdahl's law is that to speed up real applications which have both serial and parallel portions, heterogeneous computing techniques are required. [12] There are novel speedup and energy consumption models based on a more general representation of heterogeneity, referred to as the normal form heterogeneity, that support a wide ...

  7. Parallel (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_(geometry)

    the distance between the two lines can be found by locating two points (one on each line) that lie on a common perpendicular to the parallel lines and calculating the distance between them. Since the lines have slope m , a common perpendicular would have slope −1/ m and we can take the line with equation y = − x / m as a common perpendicular.

  8. Parallel (operator) - Wikipedia

    Graphical interpretation of the parallel operator with =.. The parallel operator ‖ (pronounced "parallel", [1] following the parallel lines notation from geometry; [2] [3] also known as reduced sum, parallel sum or parallel addition) is a binary operation which is used as a shorthand in electrical engineering, [4] [5] [6] [nb 1] but is also used in kinetics, fluid mechanics and financial ...

  9. Parareal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parareal

    Parareal is a parallel algorithm from numerical analysis and used for the solution of initial value problems. [1] It was introduced in 2001 by Lions, Maday and Turinici.Since then, it has become one of the most widely studied parallel-in-time integration methods.
