  2. Thermal transmittance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_transmittance

    Although the concept of U-value (or U-factor) is universal, U-values can be expressed in different units. In most countries, U-value is expressed in SI units, as watts per square metre-kelvin: W/(m 2 ⋅K) In the United States, U-value is expressed as British thermal units (Btu) per hour-square feet-degrees Fahrenheit: Btu/(h⋅ft 2 ⋅°F)

  3. Quartic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartic_equation

    The effect has been to fold up the u 4 term into a perfect square: (u 2 + a) 2. The second term, au 2 did not disappear, but its sign has changed and it has been moved to the right side. The next step is to insert a variable y into the perfect square on the left side of equation ( 2 ), and a corresponding 2 y into the coefficient of u 2 in the ...

  4. Calculator input methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculator_input_methods

    On a single-step or immediate-execution calculator, the user presses a key for each operation, calculating all the intermediate results, before the final value is shown. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] On an expression or formula calculator , one types in an expression and then presses a key, such as "=" or "Enter", to evaluate the expression.

  5. Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_methods_for...

    One possibility is to use not only the previously computed value y n to determine y n+1, but to make the solution depend on more past values. This yields a so-called multistep method. Perhaps the simplest is the leapfrog method which is second order and (roughly speaking) relies on two time values.

  6. Factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization

    Factorization is one of the most important methods for expression manipulation for several reasons. If one can put an equation in a factored form E⋅F = 0, then the problem of solving the equation splits into two independent (and generally easier) problems E = 0 and F = 0. When an expression can be factored, the factors are often much simpler ...

  7. Extraneous and missing solutions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extraneous_and_missing...

    The solution = is in fact a valid solution to the original equation; but the other solution, =, has disappeared. The problem is that we divided both sides by x {\displaystyle x} , which involves the indeterminate operation of dividing by zero when x = 0. {\displaystyle x=0.}

  8. Window insulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Window_insulation

    The U-value is used to refer to the amount of heat that can pass through a window, called thermal transmittance, with a lower score being better. [1] The U-factor of a window can often be found on the rating label of the window. Although the concept of U-value (or U-factor) is universal, U-values can be expressed in different units.

  9. Gauss–Seidel method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss–Seidel_method

    The solution is obtained iteratively via (+) = (), where the matrix is decomposed into a lower triangular component , and a strictly upper triangular component such that = +. [4] More specifically, the decomposition of A {\displaystyle A} into L ∗ {\displaystyle L_{*}} and U {\displaystyle U} is given by:
