  2. Envelope (waves) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Envelope_(waves)

    The envelope thus generalizes the concept of a constant amplitude into an instantaneous amplitude. The figure illustrates a modulated sine wave varying between an upper envelope and a lower envelope. The envelope function may be a function of time, space, angle, or indeed of any variable. Envelope for a modulated sine wave.

  3. Wave packet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_packet

    A looped animation of a wave packet propagating without dispersion: the envelope is maintained even as the phase changes. In physics, a wave packet (also known as a wave train or wave group) is a short burst of localized wave action that travels as a unit, outlined by an envelope.

  4. Gaussian function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_function

    Mathematically, the derivatives of the Gaussian function can be represented using Hermite functions. For unit variance, the n-th derivative of the Gaussian is the Gaussian function itself multiplied by the n-th Hermite polynomial, up to scale. Consequently, Gaussian functions are also associated with the vacuum state in quantum field theory.

  5. Chirp spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chirp_spectrum

    In cases where the signal envelope and spectrum modulus are defined by smoothly varying Gaussian function then a T. Δ F product as low as 15 will give acceptable results, but if both a(t) and |S(ω)| are defined by rectangular functions, then the product T. Δ F needs to be much greater, typically over 100.

  6. Sodium bicarbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_bicarbonate

    Cupcakes baked with baking soda as a raising agent. Sodium bicarbonate (IUPAC name: sodium hydrogencarbonate [9]), commonly known as baking soda or bicarbonate of soda, is a chemical compound with the formula NaHCO 3. It is a salt composed of a sodium cation (Na +) and a bicarbonate anion (HCO 3 −).

  7. Process flow diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_flow_diagram

    A process flow diagram (PFD) is a diagram commonly used in chemical and process engineering to indicate the general flow of plant processes and equipment. The PFD displays the relationship between major equipment of a plant facility and does not show minor details such as piping details and designations.

  8. Gaussian process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_process

    Inference of continuous values with a Gaussian process prior is known as Gaussian process regression, or kriging; extending Gaussian process regression to multiple target variables is known as cokriging. [26] Gaussian processes are thus useful as a powerful non-linear multivariate interpolation tool. Kriging is also used to extend Gaussian ...

  9. Gauss–Markov process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss–Markov_process

    Gauss–Markov stochastic processes (named after Carl Friedrich Gauss and Andrey Markov) are stochastic processes that satisfy the requirements for both Gaussian processes and Markov processes. [1] [2] A stationary Gauss–Markov process is unique [citation needed] up to rescaling; such a process is also known as an Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process.
