  2. Nondimensionalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondimensionalization

    Choose judiciously the definition of the characteristic unit for each variable so that the coefficients of as many terms as possible become 1; Rewrite the system of equations in terms of their new dimensionless quantities. The last three steps are usually specific to the problem where nondimensionalization is applied.

  3. Dimensionless quantity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimensionless_quantity

    Dimensionless quantities, or quantities of dimension one, [1] are quantities implicitly defined in a manner that prevents their aggregation into units of measurement. [2] [3] Typically expressed as ratios that align with another system, these quantities do not necessitate explicitly defined units.

  4. Scale analysis (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_analysis_(statistics)

    The item-total correlation approach is a way of identifying a group of questions whose responses can be combined into a single measure or scale. This is a simple approach that works by ensuring that, when considered across a whole population, responses to the questions in the group tend to vary together and, in particular, that responses to no individual question are poorly related to an ...

    Chemical engineering, material science, mechanics (A scale to show the energy needed for detaching two solid particles) [13] [14] Cost of transport: COT = energy efficiency, economics (ratio of energy input to kinetic motion) Damping ratio

  6. Economies of scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economies_of_scale

    Economies of scale is related to and can easily be confused with the theoretical economic notion of returns to scale. Where economies of scale refer to a firm's costs, returns to scale describe the relationship between inputs and outputs in a long-run (all inputs variable) production function.

  7. Scale analysis (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Scale analysis anticipates within a factor of order one when done properly, the expensive results produced by exact analyses. Scale analysis rules as follows: Rule1-First step in scale analysis is to define the domain of extent in which we apply scale analysis. Any scale analysis of a flow region that is not uniquely defined is not valid.

  8. Macroeconomic model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macroeconomic_model

    A macroeconomic model is an analytical tool designed to describe the operation of the problems of economy of a country or a region. These models are usually designed to examine the comparative statics and dynamics of aggregate quantities such as the total amount of goods and services produced, total income earned, the level of employment of productive resources, and the level of prices.

  9. Inframarginal analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inframarginal_Analysis

    This analysis method is widely used in the analysis process of economic behaviours and economic variables, such as utility, cost, output, income, profit, consumption, savings, investment, factor efficiency and so on. Inframarginal analysis is to add a "super" on the basis of marginal analysis, and this "super" is another step.
