  2. Nominal Pipe Size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nominal_Pipe_Size

    Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) is a North American set of standard sizes for pipes used for high or low pressures and temperatures. [1] " Nominal" refers to pipe in non-specific terms and identifies the diameter of the hole with a non-dimensional number (for example – 2-inch nominal steel pipe" consists of many varieties of steel pipe with the only criterion being a 2.375-inch (60.3 mm) outside ...

    NPS – nominal pipe size (sometimes NS) NPSH(R) – net-positive suction head (required) NPT – Non-Productive Time (used during drilling or well intervention operations mainly, malfunction of equipment or the lack of personnel competencies that result in loss of time, which is costly)

  4. Network Policy Server - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_Policy_Server

    When a server running NPS is a member of an Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain, NPS uses the directory service as its user account database and is part of a single sign-on solution. The same set of credentials is used for network access control (authenticating and authorizing access to a network) and to log on to an AD DS domain. [3]

    The length of the line would then be scaled to P 1 assuming the Smith chart radius to be unity. For example, if the actual radius measured from the paper was 100 mm, the length OP 1 would be 63 mm. The following table gives some similar examples of points which are plotted on the Z Smith chart. For each, the reflection coefficient is given in ...

  6. Common Log Format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Log_Format

    For computer log management, the Common Log Format, [1] also known as the NCSA Common log format, [2] (after NCSA HTTPd) is a standardized text file format used by web servers when generating server log files. [3] Because the format is standardized, the files can be readily analyzed by a variety of web analysis programs, for example Webalizer ...

  7. Log-polar coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log-polar_coordinates

    Log-polar coordinates in the plane consist of a pair of real numbers (ρ,θ), where ρ is the logarithm of the distance between a given point and the origin and θ is the angle between a line of reference (the x-axis) and the line through the origin and the point. The angular coordinate is the same as for polar coordinates, while the radial ...

  8. Log-distance path loss model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log-distance_path_loss_model

    The log-distance path loss model is a radio propagation model that predicts the path loss a signal encounters inside a building or densely populated areas over long distance. While the log-distance model is suitable for longer distances, the short-distance path loss model is often used for indoor environments or very short outdoor distances.

  9. Girard form class - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Girard_form_class

    Girard form class is a form quotient calculated as the ratio of diameter inside bark at the top of the first 16 foot log to the diameter outside bark at breast height ().Its purpose is to estimate board-foot volume of whole trees from measurement of DBH, estimation of the number of logs, and estimation of the taper of the first log, based on the general relationships identified between the ...
