  2. Logistic map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_map

    Graphs of maps, especially those of one variable such as the logistic map, are key to understanding the behavior of the map. One of the uses of graphs is to illustrate fixed points, called points. Draw a line y = x (a 45° line) on the graph of the map. If there is a point where this 45° line intersects with the graph, that point is a fixed point.

  3. Logistic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_equation

    Logistic equation can refer to: Logistic function, a common S-shaped equation and curve with applications in a wide range of fields. Logistic map, a nonlinear recurrence relation that plays a prominent role in chaos theory; Logistic regression, a regression technique that transforms the dependent variable using the logistic function

  4. Logistic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_function

    The standard logistic function is the logistic function with parameters =, =, =, which yields = + = + = / / + /.In practice, due to the nature of the exponential function, it is often sufficient to compute the standard logistic function for over a small range of real numbers, such as a range contained in [−6, +6], as it quickly converges very close to its saturation values of 0 and 1.

  5. Free fall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_fall

    In classical mechanics, free fall is any motion of a body where gravity is the only force acting upon it. A freely falling object may not necessarily be falling down in the vertical direction . If the common definition of the word "fall" is used, an object moving upwards is not considered to be falling, but using scientific definitions, if it ...

  6. Cobweb plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobweb_plot

    For a given iterated function :, the plot consists of a diagonal (=) line and a curve representing = ().To plot the behaviour of a value , apply the following steps.. Find the point on the function curve with an x-coordinate of .

  7. Hubbert curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubbert_curve

    The graph of a Hubbert curve consists of three key elements: a gradual rise from zero resource production that then increases quickly; a "Hubbert peak", representing the maximum production level; a drop from the peak that then follows a steep production decline.

  8. Free fall machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_fall_machine

    The free fall machine (FFM) addresses some of the problems of the simple horizontal clinostat or random positioning machines (RPM).In a typical machine samples are allowed to cycle between free fall for about a metre down a column (micro-gravity simulation, near "0 g") and a "bounce" back to the top of the column that is intended to be so fast (c. 20 g for 20 ms) that it is undetected by the ...

  9. Logistic distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_distribution

    The probability density function is the partial derivative of the cumulative distribution function: (;,) = (;,) = / (+ /) = (() / + / ()) = ⁡ ().When the location parameter μ is 0 and the scale parameter s is 1, then the probability density function of the logistic distribution is given by
