  2. Bioconcentration - Wikipedia

    Fugacity and BCF relate to each other in the following equation: = [6] where Z Fish is equal to the Fugacity capacity of a chemical in the fish, P Fish is equal to the density of the fish (mass/length 3), BCF is the partition coefficient between the fish and the water (length 3 /mass) and H is equal to the Henry's law constant (Length 2 /Time 2) [6]

  3. Chess rating system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess_rating_system

    The term (W-L) / 2 is the score above or below 0. ΣD / 4C is the expected score according to: 4C rating points equals 100%. [15] The USCF used a modification of this system to calculate ratings after individual games of correspondence chess, with a K = 32 and C = 200. [16]

  4. Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane

    Tris (pentafluorophenyl)borane, sometimes referred to as "BCF", is the chemical compound (C6F5)3B. It is a white, volatile solid. The molecule consists of three pentafluorophenyl groups attached in a "paddle-wheel" manner to a central boron atom; the BC3 core is planar. It has been described as the “ideal Lewis acid ” because of its high ...

  5. Exponential decay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_decay

    A more intuitive characteristic of exponential decay for many people is the time required for the decaying quantity to fall to one half of its initial value. (If N (t) is discrete, then this is the median life-time rather than the mean life-time.) This time is called the half-life, and often denoted by the symbol t1/2.

  6. Elo rating system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elo_rating_system

    The Elo[a] rating system is a method for calculating the relative skill levels of players in zero-sum games such as chess or esports. It is named after its creator Arpad Elo, a Hungarian-American physics professor. The Elo system was invented as an improved chess-rating system over the previously used Harkness system, [1] but is also used as a ...

  7. Lotka–Volterra equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lotka–Volterra_equations

    The Lotka–Volterra equations, also known as the Lotka–Volterra predator–prey model, are a pair of first-order nonlinear differential equations, frequently used to describe the dynamics of biological systems in which two species interact, one as a predator and the other as prey. The populations change through time according to the pair of ...

  8. Bjerrum plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bjerrum_plot

    These three equations show that the curves for CO 2 and HCO − 3 intersect at [H +] eq = K 1, and the curves for HCO − 3 and CO 2− 3 intersect at [H +] eq = K 2. Therefore, the values of K 1 and K 2 that were used to create a given Bjerrum plot can easily be found from that plot, by reading off the concentrations at these points of ...

  9. Low-cycle fatigue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-cycle_fatigue

    Low cycle fatigue (LCF) has two fundamental characteristics: plastic deformation in each cycle; and low cycle phenomenon, in which the materials have finite endurance for this type of load. The term cycle refers to repeated applications of stress that lead to eventual fatigue and failure; low-cycle pertains to a long period between applications.
