  2. Electrical susceptance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_susceptance

    In some sources Oliver Heaviside is given credit for coining the term, [2] or with introducing the concept under the name permittance. [3] This claim is mistaken according to Steinmetz's biographer. [4] The term susceptance does not appear anywhere in Heaviside's collected works, and Heaviside used the term permittance to mean capacitance, not ...

  3. Elastance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastance

    The definition of capacitance (C) is the charge (Q) stored per unit voltage (V).= Elastance (S) is the reciprocal of capacitance, thus, [1]= . Expressing the values of capacitors as elastance is not commonly done by practical electrical engineers, but can be convenient for capacitors in series since their total elastance is simply the sum of their individual elastances.

  4. Permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permittivity

    In electromagnetism, the absolute permittivity, often simply called permittivity and denoted by the Greek letter ε (), is a measure of the electric polarizability of a dielectric material.

  5. Vacuum permittivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_permittivity

    Vacuum permittivity, commonly denoted ε 0 (pronounced "epsilon nought" or "epsilon zero"), is the value of the absolute dielectric permittivity of classical vacuum.It may also be referred to as the permittivity of free space, the electric constant, or the distributed capacitance of the vacuum.

  6. Bawi system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bawi_system

    The use of the word bawi be discontinued. In the case of Chmesen bawis and Tukluh bawis any claim put forward be limited in specific amount of the consideration. The maximum liability of a bawi on seeking freedom be accepted as Rs. 40, or mithun for a whole family.

  7. Oliver Heaviside - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliver_Heaviside

    Oliver Heaviside (/ ˈ h ɛ v i s aɪ d /, HEH-vee-syde; 18 May 1850 – 3 February 1925) was an English mathematician and physicist who invented a new technique for solving differential equations (equivalent to the Laplace transform), independently developed vector calculus, and rewrote Maxwell's equations in the form commonly used today.

  8. Nodal admittance matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nodal_admittance_matrix

    In power engineering, nodal admittance matrix (or just admittance matrix) is an N x N matrix describing a linear power system with N buses.It represents the nodal admittance of the buses in a power system.

  9. Contingency (philosophy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contingency_(philosophy)

    This distinction begins to reveal the ordinary English meaning of the word "contingency," in which the truth of one thing depends on the truth of another. On the one hand, the mathematical idea that a sum of two and two is four is always possible and always true, which makes it necessary and therefore not contingent. This mathematical truth ...
