  2. Density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density

    The compressibility for a typical liquid or solid is 10 −6 bar −1 (1 bar = 0.1 MPa) and a typical thermal expansivity is 10 −5 K −1. This roughly translates into needing around ten thousand times atmospheric pressure to reduce the volume of a substance by one percent.

  3. Packing problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packing_problems

    Packing squares in a square: Optimal solutions have been proven for n from 1-10, 14-16, 22-25, 33-36, 62-64, 79-81, 98-100, and any square integer. The wasted space is asymptotically O(a 3/5). Packing squares in a circle: Good solutions are known for n ≤ 35. The optimal packing of 10 squares in a square

  4. Bulk density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_density

    Bulk density is not the same as the particle density, which is an intrinsic property of the solid and does not include the volume for voids between particles (see: density of non-compact materials). Bulk density is an extrinsic property of a material; it can change depending on how the material is handled. For example, a powder poured into a ...

    — "Values ranging from 21.3 to 21.5 gm/cm 3 at 20 °C have been reported for the density of annealed platinum; the best value being about 21.45 gm/cm 3 at 20 °C." 21.46 g/cm 3 — Rose, T. Kirke. The Precious Metals, Comprising Gold, Silver and Platinum .

  6. Total suspended solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_suspended_solids

    TSS of a water or wastewater sample is determined by pouring a carefully measured volume of water (typically one litre; but less if the particulate density is high, or as much as two or three litres for very clean water) through a pre-weighed filter of a specified pore size, then weighing the filter again after the drying process that removes all water on the filter.

  7. Sphere packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphere_packing

    The strictly jammed (mechanically stable even as a finite system) regular sphere packing with the lowest known density is a diluted ("tunneled") fcc crystal with a density of only π √ 2 /9 ≈ 0.49365. [6] The loosest known regular jammed packing has a density of approximately 0.0555. [7]

  8. Specific weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_weight

    The specific weight, also known as the unit weight (symbol γ, the Greek letter gamma), is a volume-specific quantity defined as the weight W divided by the volume V of a material: = / Equivalently, it may also be formulated as the product of density, ρ, and gravity acceleration, g: = Its unit of measurement in the International System of Units (SI) is newton per cubic metre (N/m 3), with ...

  9. Density estimation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Density_Estimation

    In statistics, probability density estimation or simply density estimation is the construction of an estimate, based on observed data, of an unobservable underlying probability density function. The unobservable density function is thought of as the density according to which a large population is distributed; the data are usually thought of as ...
