  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 U.S. Patent No. 2,950,048, granted on August 23, 1960.

  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. Modular exponentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_exponentiation

    Modular exponentiation is the remainder when an integer b (the base) is raised to the power e (the exponent), and divided by a positive integer m (the modulus); that is, c = be mod m. From the definition of division, it follows that 0 ≤ c < m . For example, given b = 5, e = 3 and m = 13, dividing 53 = 125 by 13 leaves a remainder of c = 8 .

  5. Mechanical properties of biomaterials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_properties_of...

    Mechanical properties of some biomaterials and bone are summarized in Table 1. Among them, hydroxyapatite is most widely studied bioactive and biocompatible material. However, it has lower Young's modulus and fracture toughness with a brittle nature. Hence, it is required to produce a biomaterial with good mechanical properties. Elastic modulus

  6. Three-point flexural test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-point_flexural_test

    The three-point bending flexural test provides values for the modulus of elasticity in bending , flexural stress , flexural strain and the flexural stress–strain response of the material. This test is performed on a universal testing machine (tensile testing machine or tensile tester) with a three-point or four-point bend fixture.

  7. Weibull modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weibull_modulus

    Weibull modulus. The Weibull modulus is a dimensionless parameter of the Weibull distribution. It represents the width of a probability density function (PDF) in which a higher modulus is a characteristic of a narrower distribution of values. Use case examples include biological and brittle material failure analysis, where modulus is used to ...

  8. Modulus (algebraic number theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulus_(algebraic_number...

    A modulus is a formal product [3] [4] where p runs over all places of K, finite or infinite, the exponents ν ( p) are zero except for finitely many p. If K is a number field, ν ( p ) = 0 or 1 for real places and ν ( p ) = 0 for complex places. If K is a function field, ν ( p ) = 0 for all infinite places. In the function field case, a ...

  9. Quadratic reciprocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_reciprocity

    This table is complete for odd primes less than 50. To check whether a number m is a quadratic residue mod one of these primes p , find a ≡ m (mod p ) and 0 ≤ a < p . If a is in row p , then m is a residue (mod p ); if a is not in row p of the table, then m is a nonresidue (mod p ).
