  2. Luhn algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luhn_algorithm

    Luhn algorithm. The Luhn algorithm or Luhn formula, also known as the " modulus 10" or "mod 10" algorithm, named after its creator, IBM scientist Hans Peter Luhn, is a simple check digit formula used to validate a variety of identification numbers. It is described in US patent 2950048A, granted on 23 August 1960. [1]

  3. Modular arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_arithmetic

    Adding 4 hours to 9 o'clock gives 1 o'clock, since 13 is congruent to 1 modulo 12. In mathematics, modular arithmetic is a system of arithmetic for integers, where numbers "wrap around" when reaching a certain value, called the modulus. The modern approach to modular arithmetic was developed by Carl Friedrich Gauss in his book Disquisitiones ...

  4. Shear modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_modulus

    G = τ / γ = E / [2 (1 + ν)] Shear strain. In materials science, shear modulus or modulus of rigidity, denoted by G, or sometimes S or μ, is a measure of the elastic shear stiffness of a material and is defined as the ratio of shear stress to the shear strain: [1] where. = shear stress. is the force which acts. is the area on which the force ...

  5. Finite field arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_field_arithmetic

    The monic irreducible polynomial x 8 + x 4 + x 3 + x + 1 over GF(2) is not primitive. Let λ be a root of this polynomial (in the polynomial representation this would be x), that is, λ 8 + λ 4 + λ 3 + λ + 1 = 0. Now λ 51 = 1, so λ is not a primitive element of GF(2 8) and generates a multiplicative subgroup of order 51. [5]

    For any element x in F and any integer n, denote by n ⋅ x the sum of n copies of x. The least positive n such that n ⋅ 1 = 0 is the characteristic p of the field. This allows defining a multiplication (k, x) ↦ k ⋅ x of an element k of GF(p) by an element x of F by choosing an integer representative for k. This multiplication makes F ...

  7. Abelian group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abelian_group

    Abelian group. In mathematics, an abelian group, also called a commutative group, is a group in which the result of applying the group operation to two group elements does not depend on the order in which they are written. That is, the group operation is commutative. With addition as an operation, the integers and the real numbers form abelian ...

  8. Maximum modulus principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_modulus_principle

    Maximum modulus principle. A plot of the modulus of (in red) for in the unit disk centered at the origin (shown in blue). As predicted by the theorem, the maximum of the modulus cannot be inside of the disk (so the highest value on the red surface is somewhere along its edge). In mathematics, the maximum modulus principle in complex analysis ...

  9. Elastic modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastic_modulus

    Young's modulus (E) - apply small, incremental changes in the lattice parameter along a specific axis and compute the corresponding stress response using DFT. Young’s modulus is then calculated as E=σ/ϵ, where σ is the stress and ϵ is the strain. [4] Initial structure: Start with a relaxed structure of the material.
