  2. Circular mean - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_mean

    For example, the arithmetic mean of 0° and 360° is 180°, which is misleading because 360° equals 0° modulo a full cycle. [1] As another example, the "average time" between 11 PM and 1 AM is either midnight or noon, depending on whether the two times are part of a single night or part of a single calendar day.

  3. Touchard polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Touchard_polynomials

    The value at 1 of the nth Touchard polynomial is the nth Bell number, i.e., the number of partitions of a set of size n: =.If X is a random variable with a Poisson distribution with expected value λ, then its nth moment is E(X n) = T n (λ), leading to the definition:

  4. Method of averaging - Wikipedia

    Such situation recapitulates what is illustrated in Figure 1. Theorem (Eckhaus [ 6 ] /Sanchez-Palencia [ 7 ] ) Consider the initial value problem x ˙ = ε f 1 ( x , t ) , x 0 ∈ D ⊆ R n , 0 ≤ ε ≪ 1. {\displaystyle {\dot {x}}=\varepsilon f^{1}(x,t),\qquad x_{0}\in D\subseteq \mathbb {R} ^{n},\quad 0\leq \varepsilon \ll 1.}

  5. Ptolemy's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ptolemy's_theorem

    The theorem is named after the Greek astronomer and mathematician Ptolemy (Claudius Ptolemaeus). [1] Ptolemy used the theorem as an aid to creating his table of chords, a trigonometric table that he applied to astronomy. If the vertices of the cyclic quadrilateral are A, B, C, and D in order, then the theorem states that:

    Plot of the Jacobi polynomial function (,) with = and = and = in the complex plane from to + with colors created with Mathematica 13.1 function ComplexPlot3D In mathematics , Jacobi polynomials (occasionally called hypergeometric polynomials ) P n ( α , β ) ( x ) {\displaystyle P_{n}^{(\alpha ,\beta )}(x)} are a class of classical orthogonal ...

  7. Rise in core - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rise_in_Core

    The rise in core (RIC) method is an alternate reservoir wettability characterization method described by S. Ghedan and C. H. Canbaz in 2014. The method enables estimation of all wetting regions such as strongly water wet, intermediate water, oil wet and strongly oil wet regions in relatively quick and accurate measurements in terms of Contact angle rather than wettability index.

  8. Flamant solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flamant_solution

    This solution was developed by Alfred-Aimé Flamant in 1892 [1] by modifying the three dimensional solutions for linear elasticity of Joseph Valentin Boussinesq. The stresses predicted by the Flamant solution are (in polar coordinates)
