  2. Taylor dispersion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor_dispersion

    Taylor dispersion or Taylor diffusion is an apparent or effective diffusion of some scalar field arising on the large scale due to the presence of a strong, confined, zero-mean shear flow on the small scale. Essentially, the shear acts to smear out the concentration distribution in the direction of the flow, enhancing the rate at which it ...

  3. Itô's lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Itô's_lemma

    In mathematics, Itô's lemma or Itô's formula is an identity used in Itô calculus to find the differential of a time-dependent function of a stochastic process.It serves as the stochastic calculus counterpart of the chain rule.

  4. Rate-determining step - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate-determining_step

    For the NO 2 –CO reaction above, the rate depends on [NO 2] 2, so that the activated complex has composition N 2 O 4, with 2 NO 2 entering the reaction before the transition state, and CO reacting after the transition state. A multistep example is the reaction between oxalic acid and chlorine in aqueous solution: H 2 C 2 O 4 + Cl 22 CO 2 ...

  5. Taylor series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor_series

    That is, the Taylor series diverges at x if the distance between x and b is larger than the radius of convergence. The Taylor series can be used to calculate the value of an entire function at every point, if the value of the function, and of all of its derivatives, are known at a single point. Uses of the Taylor series for analytic functions ...

    To illustrate, a simple example of this process is to find the mean and variance of the derived quantity z = x 2 where the measured quantity x is Normally distributed with mean μ and variance σ 2. The derived quantity z will have some new PDF, that can (sometimes) be found using the rules of probability calculus. [ 7 ]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_equation

    The equations are a set of differential equations – over time – of the probabilities that the system occupies each of the different states. The name was proposed in 1940: [ 1 ] [ 2 ] When the probabilities of the elementary processes are known, one can write down a continuity equation for W, from which all other equations can be derived and ...
