  2. Dimensionless quantity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimensionless_quantity

    Dimensionless quantities, or quantities of dimension one, [1] are quantities implicitly defined in a manner that prevents their aggregation into units of measurement. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Typically expressed as ratios that align with another system, these quantities do not necessitate explicitly defined units .

  3. List of dimensionless quantities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dimensionless...

    This is a list of well-known dimensionless quantities illustrating their variety of forms and applications. The tables also include pure numbers, dimensionless ratios, or dimensionless physical constants; these topics are discussed in the article.

  4. Nondimensionalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondimensionalization

    For example, if "x" represented mass, the letter "m" might be an appropriate symbol to represent the dimensionless mass quantity. In this article, the following conventions have been used: t – represents the independent variable – usually a time quantity.

  5. Buckingham π theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckingham_π_theorem

    Although named for Edgar Buckingham, the π theorem was first proved by the French mathematician Joseph Bertrand in 1878. [1] Bertrand considered only special cases of problems from electrodynamics and heat conduction, but his article contains, in distinct terms, all the basic ideas of the modern proof of the theorem and clearly indicates the theorem's utility for modelling physical phenomena.

  6. Dimensional analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimensional_analysis

    In engineering and science, dimensional analysis is the analysis of the relationships between different physical quantities by identifying their base quantities (such as length, mass, time, and electric current) and units of measurement (such as metres and grams) and tracking these dimensions as calculations or comparisons are performed.

    13. A bond ladder. A bond ladder is a series of bonds that mature at different times over a period of years. The staggered maturities allow you to decrease reinvestment risk, which is the risk of ...

  8. Change-making problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Change-making_problem

    The following is a dynamic programming implementation (with Python 3) which uses a matrix to keep track of the optimal solutions to sub-problems, and returns the minimum number of coins, or "Infinity" if there is no way to make change with the coins given. A second matrix may be used to obtain the set of coins for the optimal solution.

  9. Dimensionless physical constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimensionless_physical...

    The original Standard Model of particle physics from the 1970s contained 19 fundamental dimensionless constants describing the masses of the particles and the strengths of the electroweak and strong forces. In the 1990s, neutrinos were discovered to have nonzero mass, and a quantity called the vacuum angle was found to be indistinguishable from ...
