  2. Intelligent driver model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligent_driver_model

    In traffic flow modeling, the intelligent driver model (IDM) is a time-continuous car-following model for the simulation of freeway and urban traffic. It was developed by Treiber, Hennecke and Helbing in 2000 to improve upon results provided with other "intelligent" driver models such as Gipps' model , which loses realistic properties in the ...

  3. Fitts's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fitts's_law

    The law predicts that the time required to rapidly move to a target area is a function of the ratio between the distance to the target and the width of the target. [1] Fitts's law is used to model the act of pointing , either by physically touching an object with a hand or finger, or virtually, by pointing to an object on a computer monitor ...

  4. Inverse distance weighting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_distance_weighting

    Inverse distance weighting (IDW) is a type of deterministic method for multivariate interpolation with a known scattered set of points. The assigned values to unknown points are calculated with a weighted average of the values available at the known points.

  5. Range (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_(aeronautics)

    The logarithmic term with weight ratios is replaced by the direct ratio between / = where is the energy per mass of the battery (e.g. 150-200 Wh/kg for Li-ion batteries), the total efficiency (typically 0.7-0.8 for batteries, motor, gearbox and propeller), / lift over drag (typically around 18), and the weight ratio / typically around 0.3.

  6. Mechanical advantage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_advantage

    The speed ratio for a pair of meshing gears can be computed from ratio of the radii of the pitch circles and the ratio of the number of teeth on each gear, its gear ratio. Two meshing gears transmit rotational motion. The velocity v of the point of contact on the pitch circles is the same on both gears, and is given by

  7. Power-to-weight ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-to-weight_ratio

    Power-to-weight ratios for vehicles are usually calculated using curb weight (for cars) or wet weight (for motorcycles), that is, excluding weight of the driver and any cargo. This could be slightly misleading, especially with regard to motorcycles, where the driver might weigh 1/3 to 1/2 as much as the vehicle itself.

  8. Payload fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Payload_fraction

    In aerospace engineering, payload fraction is a common term used to characterize the efficiency of a particular design. The payload fraction is the quotient of the payload mass and the total vehicle mass at the start of its journey.

  9. Strictly standardized mean difference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strictly_standardized_mean...

    As a statistical parameter, SSMD (denoted as ) is defined as the ratio of mean to standard deviation of the difference of two random values respectively from two groups. Assume that one group with random values has mean μ 1 {\displaystyle \mu _{1}} and variance σ 1 2 {\displaystyle \sigma _{1}^{2}} and another group has mean μ 2 ...
