  2. Finite-difference time-domain method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite-difference_time...

    Since FDTD simulations calculate the E and H fields at all points within the computational domain, the computational domain must be finite to permit its residence in the computer memory. In many cases this is achieved by inserting artificial boundaries into the simulation space. Care must be taken to minimize errors introduced by such boundaries.

  3. Finite difference coefficient - Wikipedia

    A finite difference can be central, forward or backward. ... where the only non-zero value on the right hand side is in the (+)-th row. An open source implementation ...

  4. Finite difference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_difference

    In an analogous way, one can obtain finite difference approximations to higher order derivatives and differential operators. For example, by using the above central difference formula for f ′(x + ⁠ h / 2 ⁠) and f ′(x − ⁠ h / 2 ⁠) and applying a central difference formula for the derivative of f ′ at x, we obtain the central difference approximation of the second derivative of f:

  5. Central differencing scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_differencing_scheme

    It requires that transportiveness changes according to magnitude of peclet number i.e. when pe is zero is spread in all directions equally and as Pe increases (convection > diffusion) at a point largely depends on upstream value and less on downstream value. But central differencing scheme does not possess transportiveness at higher pe since Φ ...

    Therefore, the true derivative of f at x is the limit of the value of the difference quotient as the secant lines get closer and closer to being a tangent line: ′ = (+) (). Since immediately substituting 0 for h results in 0 0 {\displaystyle {\frac {0}{0}}} indeterminate form , calculating the derivative directly can be unintuitive.

  7. Central tendency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_tendency

    In statistics, a central tendency (or measure of central tendency) is a central or typical value for a probability distribution. [1] Colloquially, measures of central tendency are often called averages. The term central tendency dates from the late 1920s. [2] The most common measures of central tendency are the arithmetic mean, the median, and ...

  8. Final value theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_value_theorem

    Final value theorems for obtaining () have applications in probability and statistics to calculate the moments of a random variable. Let R ( x ) {\displaystyle R(x)} be cumulative distribution function of a continuous random variable X {\displaystyle X} and let ρ ( s ) {\displaystyle \rho (s)} be the Laplace–Stieltjes transform of R ( x ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculator

    Made in Japan, this was also the first calculator to use an LED display, the first hand-held calculator to use a single integrated circuit (then proclaimed as a "calculator on a chip"), the Mostek MK6010, and the first electronic calculator to run off replaceable batteries. Using four AA-size cells the LE-120A measures 4.9 by 2.8 by 0.9 inches ...
