  2. Crest factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crest_factor

    The peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is the peak amplitude squared (giving the peak power) divided by the RMS value squared (giving the average power). [1] It is the square of the crest factor. When expressed in decibels , crest factor and PAPR are equivalent, due to the way decibels are calculated for power ratios vs amplitude ratios .

  3. Valuation using multiples - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valuation_using_multiples

    Calculate the current value of the future company value by multiplying the future business value with the discount factor. This is known as the time value of money. Example: VirusControl multiplies their future company value with the discount factor: 44,300,000 * 0.1316 = 5,829,880 The company or equity value of VirusControl: €5.83 million

  4. Ripple (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple_(electrical)

    Various properties of ripple voltage may be important depending on application: the equation of the ripple for Fourier analysis to determine the constituent harmonics; the peak (usually peak-to-peak) value of the voltage; the root mean square (RMS) value of the voltage which is a component of power transmitted; the ripple factor γ, the ratio ...

  5. Mountain climbing problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain_climbing_problem

    A trivial example. In mathematics, the mountain climbing problem is a mathematical problem that considers a two-dimensional mountain range (represented as a continuous function), and asks whether it is possible for two mountain climbers starting at sea level on the left and right sides of the mountain to meet at the summit, while maintaining equal altitudes at all times.

  6. Signal-to-noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio

    Assuming a full-scale sine wave signal (that is, the quantizer is designed such that it has the same minimum and maximum values as the input signal), the quantization noise approximates a sawtooth wave with peak-to-peak amplitude of one quantization level [11] and uniform distribution. In this case, the SNR is approximately

  7. Extreme value theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_value_theory

    Extreme value theory or extreme value analysis (EVA) is the study of extremes in statistical distributions. It is widely used in many disciplines, such as structural engineering , finance , economics , earth sciences , traffic prediction, and geological engineering .

  8. Amplitude - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplitude

    The peak-to-peak value is used, for example, when choosing rectifiers for power supplies, or when estimating the maximum voltage that insulation must withstand. Some common voltmeters are calibrated for RMS amplitude, but respond to the average value of a rectified waveform. Many digital voltmeters and all moving coil meters are in this category.

  9. Logarithmic decrement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_decrement

    The logarithmic decrement can be obtained e.g. as ln(x 1 /x 3).Logarithmic decrement, , is used to find the damping ratio of an underdamped system in the time domain.. The method of logarithmic decrement becomes less and less precise as the damping ratio increases past about 0.5; it does not apply at all for a damping ratio greater than 1.0 because the system is overdamped.
