However, at higher distortion levels the discrepancy becomes large. For instance, a signal with THD F 266% has a THD R of 94%. [5] A pure square wave with infinite harmonics has THD F of 48.3% [1] [15] [16] and THD R of 43.5%. [17] [18] Some use the term "distortion factor" as a synonym for THD R, [19] while others use it as a synonym for THD F ...
Goldschmidt's tolerance factor (from the German word Toleranzfaktor) is an indicator for the stability and distortion of crystal structures. [1] It was originally only used to describe the perovskite ABO 3 structure , but now tolerance factors are also used for ilmenite .
The ratio of (a) total received power, i.e., the signal to (b) the noise-plus-distortion power. This is modeled by the equation above. [2] The ratio of (a) the power of a test signal, i.e. a sine wave, to (b) the residual received power, i.e. noise-plus-distortion power. With this definition, it is possible to have a SINAD level less than one.
In continuum mechanics, the maximum distortion energy criterion (also von Mises yield criterion [1]) states that yielding of a ductile material begins when the second invariant of deviatoric stress reaches a critical value. [2] It is a part of plasticity theory that mostly applies to ductile materials, such as some metals.
In geometric optics, distortion is a deviation from rectilinear projection; a projection in which straight lines in a scene remain straight in an image.It is a form of optical aberration that may be distinguished from other aberrations such as spherical aberration, coma, chromatic aberration, field curvature, and astigmatism in a sense that these impact the image sharpness without changing an ...
The electron mobility is defined by the equation: =. where: E is the magnitude of the electric field applied to a material,; v d is the magnitude of the electron drift velocity (in other words, the electron drift speed) caused by the electric field, and
For a given supported number of possible output values, reducing the average granular distortion may involve increasing the average overload distortion, and vice versa. A technique for controlling the amplitude of the signal (or, equivalently, the quantization step size Δ {\displaystyle \Delta } ) to achieve the appropriate balance is the use ...
The stretch factor of the pair is the ratio between these two distances, d(f(x),f(y))/d(x,y). The stretch factor of the whole mapping is the supremum of the stretch factors of all pairs of points. The stretch factor has also been called the distortion [disputed – discuss] or dilation of the mapping.
