  2. Pythagorean tuning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_tuning

    The purpose of this adjustment is to move the 12 notes within a smaller range of frequency, namely within the interval between the base note D and the D above it (a note with twice its frequency). This interval is typically called the basic octave (on a piano keyboard, an octave has only 12 keys).

  3. Scale analysis (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_analysis_(mathematics)

    Scale analysis rules as follows: Rule1-First step in scale analysis is to define the domain of extent in which we apply scale analysis. Any scale analysis of a flow region that is not uniquely defined is not valid. Rule2-One equation constitutes an equivalence between the scales of two dominant terms appearing in the equation. For example,

  4. Musical tuning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musical_tuning

    In just intonation, the frequencies of the scale notes are related to one another by simple numeric ratios, a common example of this being ⁠ 1 / 1 ⁠, ⁠ 9 / 8 ⁠, ⁠ 5 / 4 ⁠, ⁠ 4 / 3 ⁠, ⁠ 3 / 2 ⁠, ⁠ 5 / 3 ⁠, ⁠ 15 / 8 ⁠, ⁠ 2 / 1 ⁠ to define the ratios for the seven notes in a C major scale, plus the return to the ...

  5. Non-dimensionalization and scaling of the Navier–Stokes equations

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-dimensionalization_and...

    In addition to reducing the number of parameters, non-dimensionalized equation helps to gain a greater insight into the relative size of various terms present in the equation. [1] [2] Following appropriate selecting of scales for the non-dimensionalization process, this leads to identification of small terms in the equation. Neglecting the ...

  6. Self-similar solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-similar_solution

    The above contains all the relevant physics and the next step is to solve the equations, which for many cases will include numerical methods. This equation is ′ / = ″ with solution satisfying the boundary conditions that = ⁡ (/) = (⁡ (/ /)) which is a self-similar solution of the first kind.

  7. Nondimensionalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondimensionalization

    For example, if x is a quantity, then x c is the characteristic unit used to scale it. As an illustrative example, consider a first order differential equation with constant coefficients: + = (). In this equation the independent variable here is t, and the dependent variable is x.

  8. Scale parameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_parameter

    This scale factor is defined as the theoretical value of the value obtained by dividing the required scale parameter by the asymptotic value of the statistic. Note that the scale factor depends on the distribution in question. For instance, in order to use the median absolute deviation (MAD) to estimate the standard deviation of the normal ...

  9. Scaling (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    In the equation y = Cx, C is the scale factor for x. C is also the coefficient of x, and may be called the constant of proportionality of y to x. For example, doubling distances corresponds to a scale factor of two for distance, while cutting a cake in half results in pieces with a scale factor for volume of one half.
