  2. Capacity of a set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacity_of_a_set

    In mathematics, the capacity of a set in Euclidean space is a measure of the "size" of that set. Unlike, say, Lebesgue measure , which measures a set's volume or physical extent, capacity is a mathematical analogue of a set's ability to hold electrical charge .

  3. Bin packing problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bin_packing_problem

    In Computers and Intractability [8]: 226 Garey and Johnson list the bin packing problem under the reference [SR1]. They define its decision variant as follows. Instance: Finite set of items, a size () + for each , a positive integer bin capacity , and a positive integer .

  4. Capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacity

    Capacity of a set, in Euclidean space, the total charge a set can hold while maintaining a given potential energy; Capacity factor, the ratio of the actual output of a power plant to its theoretical potential output; Storage capacity (energy), the amount of energy that the storage system of a power plant can hold

  5. Knapsack problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knapsack_problem

    The most common problem being solved is the 0-1 knapsack problem, which restricts the number of copies of each kind of item to zero or one. Given a set of items numbered from 1 up to , each with a weight and a value , along with a maximum weight capacity ,

  6. Set (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    A set of polygons in an Euler diagram This set equals the one depicted above since both have the very same elements.. In mathematics, a set is a collection of different [1] things; [2] [3] [4] these things are called elements or members of the set and are typically mathematical objects of any kind: numbers, symbols, points in space, lines, other geometrical shapes, variables, or even other ...

  7. Category of sets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category_of_sets

    The power object of a set A is given by its power set, and the exponential object of the sets A and B is given by the set of all functions from A to B. Set is thus a topos (and in particular cartesian closed and exact in the sense of Barr). Set is not abelian, additive nor preadditive. Every non-empty set is an injective object in Set.

  8. Unit of volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_of_volume

    6 volumetric measures from the mens ponderia in Pompeii, a municipal institution for the control of weights and measures (79 A. D.). A unit of volume is a unit of measurement for measuring volume or capacity, the extent of an object or space in three dimensions.

    The angle incremented in a plane by a segment connecting an object and a reference point per unit time rad/s T −1: bivector Area: A: Extent of a surface m 2: L 2: extensive, bivector or scalar Centrifugal force: F c: Inertial force that appears to act on all objects when viewed in a rotating frame of reference: N⋅rad = kg⋅m⋅rad⋅s −2 ...
