  2. Johnson's parabolic formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnson's_parabolic_formula

    The slenderness ratio is an indicator of the specimen's resistance to bending and buckling, due to its length and cross section. If the slenderness ratio is less than the critical slenderness ratio, the column is considered to be a short column. In these cases, the Johnson parabola is more applicable than the Euler formula.

  3. Line element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_element

    The coordinate-independent definition of the square of the line element ds in an n-dimensional Riemannian or Pseudo Riemannian manifold (in physics usually a Lorentzian manifold) is the "square of the length" of an infinitesimal displacement [2] (in pseudo Riemannian manifolds possibly negative) whose square root should be used for computing curve length: = = (,) where g is the metric tensor ...

  4. Phase line (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_line_(mathematics)

    A plot of () (left) and its phase line (right). In this case, a and c are both sinks and b is a source. In mathematics , a phase line is a diagram that shows the qualitative behaviour of an autonomous ordinary differential equation in a single variable, d y d x = f ( y ) {\displaystyle {\tfrac {dy}{dx}}=f(y)} .

  5. Column - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Column

    A steel column is extended by welding or bolting splice plates on the flanges and webs or walls of the columns to provide a few inches or feet of load transfer from the upper to the lower column section. A timber column is usually extended by the use of a steel tube or wrapped-around sheet-metal plate bolted onto the two connecting timber sections.

  6. Matrix (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_(mathematics)

    For example, a 2,1 represents the element at the second row and first column of the matrix. In mathematics , a matrix ( pl. : matrices ) is a rectangular array or table of numbers , symbols , or expressions , with elements or entries arranged in rows and columns, which is used to represent a mathematical object or property of such an object.

  7. Data orientation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_orientation

    The two most common representations are column-oriented (columnar format) and row-oriented (row format). [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The choice of data orientation is a trade-off and an architectural decision in databases , query engines, and numerical simulations. [ 1 ]

  8. Pole–zero plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pole–zero_plot

    In mathematics, signal processing and control theory, a pole–zero plot is a graphical representation of a rational transfer function in the complex plane which helps to convey certain properties of the system such as:

    A = round (rand (3, 4, 5) * 10) % 3x4x5 three-dimensional or cubic array > A (:,:, 3) % 3x4 two-dimensional array along first and second dimensions ans = 8 3 5 7 8 9 1 4 4 4 2 5 > A (:, 2: 3, 3) % 3x2 two-dimensional array along first and second dimensions ans = 3 5 9 1 4 2 > A (2: end,:, 3) % 2x4 two-dimensional array using the 'end' keyword ...
