Four-point measurement of resistance between voltage sense connections 2 and 3. Current is supplied via force connections 1 and 4. In electrical engineering, four-terminal sensing (4T sensing), 4-wire sensing, or 4-point probes method is an electrical impedance measuring technique that uses separate pairs of current-carrying and voltage-sensing electrodes to make more accurate measurements ...
Values for the flexural strength measured with four-point bending will be significantly lower than with three-point bending., [8] Compared with three-point bending test, this method is more suitable for strength evaluation of butt joint specimens. The advantage of four-point bending test is that a larger portion of the specimen between two ...
A multi-band line array elements in a horizontally oriented enclosure was suggested by Joseph D'Appolito in 1983. [8] However, the product was popularized majorly by L-Acoustics' V-DOSC line array introduced in 1992. [9] This led to the discovery that a more level and smoother frequency response can come from fewer boxes in a line array.
An illustration of the five-point stencil in one and two dimensions (top, and bottom, respectively). In numerical analysis, given a square grid in one or two dimensions, the five-point stencil of a point in the grid is a stencil made up of the point itself together with its four "neighbors".
For example, a 1000 mm length gauge would have an Airy point separation of 577.4 mm. A line or pair of lines would be marked onto the gauge 211.3 mm in from each end. Supporting the artifact at these points ensures that the calibrated length is preserved. Airy's 1845 paper [1] derives the equation for n equally spaced support points. In this ...
The relative gain array (RGA) is a classical widely-used [citation needed] method for determining the best input-output pairings for multivariable process control systems. [1] It has many practical open-loop and closed-loop control applications and is relevant to analyzing many fundamental steady-state closed-loop system properties such as ...
In general, a distance matrix is a weighted adjacency matrix of some graph. In a network, a directed graph with weights assigned to the arcs, the distance between two nodes of the network can be defined as the minimum of the sums of the weights on the shortest paths joining the two nodes (where the number of steps in the path is bounded).

The transfer-matrix method is a method used in optics and acoustics to analyze the propagation of electromagnetic or acoustic waves through a stratified medium; a stack of thin films. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] This is, for example, relevant for the design of anti-reflective coatings and dielectric mirrors .
