  2. Cost estimate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_estimate

    A cost estimate is the approximation of the cost of a program, project, or operation. The cost estimate is the product of the cost estimating process. The cost estimate has a single total value and may have identifiable component values. A problem with a cost overrun can be avoided with a credible, reliable, and accurate cost estimate. A cost ...

  3. Cost estimation models - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_estimation_models

    The model then provides as output various resources requirements in cost and time. Some models concentrate only on estimating project costs (often a single monetary value). Little attention has been given to the development of models for estimating the amount of resources needed for the different elements that comprise a project. [1]

  4. Basis of estimate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basis_of_estimate

    A pivot table in BOEMax, a Basis of Estimate software package. To create a BOE companies, throughout the past few decades, have used spreadsheet programs and skilled cost analysts to enter thousands of lines of data and create complex algorithms to calculate the costs. These positions require a high level of skill to ensure accuracy and ...

  5. State of charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_charge

    State of charge (SoC) quantifies the remaining capacity available in a battery at a given time and in relation to a given state of ageing. [1] It is usually expressed as percentage (0% = empty; 100% = full). An alternative form of the same measure is the depth of discharge , calculated as 1 −

  6. Glossary of construction cost estimating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_construction...

    A Allocation of costs is the transfer of costs from one cost item to one or more other cost items. Allowance - a value in an estimate to cover the cost of known but not yet fully defined work. As-sold estimate - the estimate which matches the agreed items and price for the project scope. B Basis of estimate (BOE) - a document which describes the scope basis, pricing basis, methods ...

  7. Electrometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrometer

    Kolbe electrometer, precision form of gold-leaf instrument. This has a light pivoted aluminum vane hanging next to a vertical metal plate. When charged the vane is repelled by the plate and hangs at an angle. An electrometer is an electrical instrument for measuring electric charge or electrical potential difference. [1]

  8. Battery balancing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_balancing

    Active balancing attempts to redistribute energy from cells at full charge to those with a lower state of charge. Energy can be bled from a cell at higher SOC by switching a reservoir capacitor in-circuit with the cell, then disconnecting the capacitor and reconnecting it to a cell with lower SOC, or through a DC-to-DC converter connected ...

  9. EMF measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EMF_measurement

    An EMF meter is a scientific instrument for measuring electromagnetic fields (abbreviated as EMF). Most meters measure the electromagnetic radiation flux density (DC fields) or the change in an electromagnetic field over time (AC fields), essentially the same as a radio antenna, but with quite different detection characteristics.
