    That g-PDF is plotted with the histogram (black line) and the agreement with the data is very good. Also shown in Figure 2 is a g-PDF curve (red dashed line) for the biased values of T that were used in the previous discussion of bias. Thus the mean of the biased-T g-PDF is at 9.800 − 0.266 m/s 2 (see Table 1).

    John Robert Taylor is British-born emeritus professor of physics at the University of Colorado, Boulder. [1] He received his B.A. in mathematics at Cambridge University, and his Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley in 1963 with thesis advisor Geoffrey Chew. [2] [3] Taylor has written

  4. Physics of failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physics_of_failure

    More recent work in the area of physics of failure has been focused on predicting the time to failure of new materials (i.e., lead-free solder, [18] [19] high-K dielectric [20]), software programs, [21] using the algorithms for prognostic purposes, [22] and integrating physics of failure predictions into system-level reliability calculations.

  5. Propagation of uncertainty - Wikipedia

    Any non-linear differentiable function, (,), of two variables, and , can be expanded as + +. If we take the variance on both sides and use the formula [11] for the variance of a linear combination of variables ⁡ (+) = ⁡ + ⁡ + ⁡ (,), then we obtain | | + | | +, where is the standard deviation of the function , is the standard deviation of , is the standard deviation of and = is the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncertainty_principle

    where = is the reduced Planck constant.. The quintessentially quantum mechanical uncertainty principle comes in many forms other than position–momentum. The energy–time relationship is widely used to relate quantum state lifetime to measured energy widths but its formal derivation is fraught with confusing issues about the nature of time.

  8. Observational error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observational_error

    Random errors are errors in measurement that lead to measurable values being inconsistent when repeated measurements of a constant attribute or quantity are taken. Random errors create measurement uncertainty. Systematic errors are errors that are not determined by chance but are introduced by repeatable processes inherent to the system. [3]

  9. Errors and residuals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Errors_and_residuals

    In regression analysis, the distinction between errors and residuals is subtle and important, and leads to the concept of studentized residuals. Given an unobservable function that relates the independent variable to the dependent variable – say, a line – the deviations of the dependent variable observations from this function are the ...
