  2. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeric_precision_in...

    Excel maintains 15 figures in its numbers, but they are not always accurate; mathematically, the bottom line should be the same as the top line, in 'fp-math' the step '1 + 1/9000' leads to a rounding up as the first bit of the 14 bit tail '10111000110010' of the mantissa falling off the table when adding 1 is a '1', this up-rounding is not undone when subtracting the 1 again, since there is no ...

  4. Nondimensionalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondimensionalization

    For example, if a system has an intrinsic resonance frequency, length, or time constant, nondimensionalization can recover these values. The technique is especially useful for systems that can be described by differential equations. One important use is in the analysis of control systems.

    To break up discontiguous runs of pages. For continuing text, use of <pages> is preferred. {{{1}}} word to be used {{{2}}}, positioning of the line and label: Add top for the line to be above label; Add left for the label to be in the left margin, and no break in the text (recommended for continuous text)

  6. Dimensionless numbers in fluid mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimensionless_numbers_in...

    Dimensionless numbers (or characteristic numbers) have an important role in analyzing the behavior of fluids and their flow as well as in other transport phenomena. [1] They include the Reynolds and the Mach numbers, which describe as ratios the relative magnitude of fluid and physical system characteristics, such as density, viscosity, speed of sound, and flow speed.

  7. Dimensionless quantity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimensionless_quantity

    [19] [20] Examples of quotients of dimension one include calculating slopes or some unit conversion factors. Another set of examples is mass fractions or mole fractions, often written using parts-per notation such as ppm (= 10 −6), ppb (= 10 −9), and ppt (= 10 −12), or perhaps confusingly as ratios of two identical units (kg/kg or mol/mol).

    Here is a more advanced example, showing some more options available for making up tables. Users can play with these settings in their own table to see what effect they have. Not all of these techniques may be appropriate in all cases; just because colored backgrounds can be added, for example, does not mean it is always a good idea.
