  2. Piston motion equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piston_motion_equations

    The angle domain equations above show that the motion of the piston (connected to rod and crank) is not simple harmonic motion, but is modified by the motion of the rod as it swings with the rotation of the crank.

  3. Mean squared displacement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_squared_displacement

    In statistical mechanics, the mean squared displacement (MSD, also mean square displacement, average squared displacement, or mean square fluctuation) is a measure of the deviation of the position of a particle with respect to a reference position over time.

  4. Classical probability density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_probability_density

    The classical probability density encapsulates which positions are more likely, which are less likely, the average position of the system, and so on. To derive this function, consider the fact that the positions where the oscillator is most likely to be found are those positions at which the oscillator spends most of its time.

  5. Expectation value (quantum mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expectation_value_(quantum...

    In quantum mechanics, the expectation value is the probabilistic expected value of the result (measurement) of an experiment. It can be thought of as an average of all the possible outcomes of a measurement as weighted by their likelihood, and as such it is not the most probable value of a measurement; indeed the expectation value may have zero probability of occurring (e.g. measurements which ...

  6. Mean anomaly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_anomaly

    Because the rate of increase, n, is a constant average, the mean anomaly increases uniformly (linearly) from 0 to 2 π radians or 0° to 360° during each orbit. It is equal to 0 when the body is at the pericenter, π radians (180°) at the apocenter , and 2 π radians (360°) after one complete revolution. [ 4 ]

  7. Centroid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centroid

    The horizontal position of the centroid, from the left edge of the figure is = + +. The vertical position of the centroid is found in the same way. The same formula holds for any three-dimensional objects, except that each A i {\displaystyle A_{i}} should be the volume of X i , {\displaystyle X_{i},} rather than its area.

  8. Average - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Average

    Average of chords. In ordinary language, an average is a single number or value that best represents a set of data. The type of average taken as most typically representative of a list of numbers is the arithmetic mean – the sum of the numbers divided by how many numbers are in the list. For example, the mean or average of the numbers 2, 3, 4 ...

  9. Mean absolute error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_absolute_error

    The MAE is conceptually simpler and also easier to interpret than RMSE: it is simply the average absolute vertical or horizontal distance between each point in a scatter plot and the Y=X line. In other words, MAE is the average absolute difference between X and Y.
