  2. Scale factor (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_factor_(computer...

    A scale factor of 1 ⁄ 10 cannot be used here, because scaling 160 by 1 ⁄ 10 gives 16, which is greater than the greatest value that can be stored in this fixed-point format. However, 1 ⁄ 11 will work as a scale factor, because the maximum scaled value, 160 ⁄ 11 = 14. 54, fits within this range. Given this set:

  3. Scaling (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scaling_(geometry)

    Each iteration of the Sierpinski triangle contains triangles related to the next iteration by a scale factor of 1/2. In affine geometry, uniform scaling (or isotropic scaling [1]) is a linear transformation that enlarges (increases) or shrinks (diminishes) objects by a scale factor that is the same in all directions (isotropically).

  6. Similitude of ship models - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Similitude_of_ship_models

    This means that all the length (L) dimensions of the real ship are divided by the same factor, the scale factor. The designers of Port Revel chose a scale (S) of 1:25, so: S (L) = 25 (smaller, hence distance is 25 times less) In this similitude, the proportions are kept (the ratios between the various dimensions of the ship are identical).

  7. Orders of magnitude (length) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(length)

    Factor () Multiple Value Item 0 0 0 Singularity: 10 −35: 1 Planck length: 0.0000162 qm Planck length; typical scale of hypothetical loop quantum gravity or size of a hypothetical string and of branes; according to string theory, lengths smaller than this do not make any physical sense. [1]

  8. Fixed-point arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-point_arithmetic

    A fixed-point representation of a fractional number is essentially an integer that is to be implicitly multiplied by a fixed scaling factor. For example, the value 1.23 can be stored in a variable as the integer value 1230 with implicit scaling factor of 1/1000 (meaning that the last 3 decimal digits are implicitly assumed to be a decimal fraction), and the value 1 230 000 can be represented ...

  9. Elliptic coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_coordinate_system

    In an orthogonal coordinate system the lengths of the basis vectors are known as scale factors. The scale factors for the elliptic coordinates ( μ , ν ) {\displaystyle (\mu ,\nu )} are equal to h μ = h ν = a sinh 2 ⁡ μ + sin 2 ⁡ ν = a cosh 2 ⁡ μ − cos 2 ⁡ ν . {\displaystyle h_{\mu }=h_{\nu }=a{\sqrt {\sinh ^{2}\mu +\sin ^{2 ...
