  2. Scale analysis (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_analysis_(statistics)

    The item-total correlation approach is a way of identifying a group of questions whose responses can be combined into a single measure or scale. This is a simple approach that works by ensuring that, when considered across a whole population, responses to the questions in the group tend to vary together and, in particular, that responses to no individual question are poorly related to an ...

    Chemical engineering, material science, mechanics (A scale to show the energy needed for detaching two solid particles) [13] [14] Cost of transport: COT = energy efficiency, economics (ratio of energy input to kinetic motion) Damping ratio

  4. Nondimensionalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondimensionalization

    Nondimensionalization is the partial or full removal of physical dimensions from an equation involving physical quantities by a suitable substitution of variables.This technique can simplify and parameterize problems where measured units are involved.

  5. Scale analysis (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_analysis_(mathematics)

    Scale analysis anticipates within a factor of order one when done properly, the expensive results produced by exact analyses. Scale analysis rules as follows: Rule1-First step in scale analysis is to define the domain of extent in which we apply scale analysis. Any scale analysis of a flow region that is not uniquely defined is not valid.

  6. Dimensionless quantity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimensionless_quantity

    Dimensionless quantities, or quantities of dimension one, [1] are quantities implicitly defined in a manner that prevents their aggregation into units of measurement. [2] [3] Typically expressed as ratios that align with another system, these quantities do not necessitate explicitly defined units.

  7. Data envelopment analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_envelopment_analysis

    Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a nonparametric method in operations research and economics for the estimation of production frontiers. [1] DEA has been applied in a large range of fields including international banking, economic sustainability, police department operations, and logistical applications [2] [3] [4] Additionally, DEA has been used to assess the performance of natural language ...

  8. Best–worst scaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Best–worst_scaling

    multinomial discrete choice analysis, in particular multinomial logit (strictly speaking the conditional logit, although the two terms are now used interchangeably). The multinomial logit (MNL) model is often the first stage in analysis and provides a measure of average utility for the attribute levels or objects (depending on the Case).

  9. Inframarginal analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inframarginal_Analysis

    This analysis method is widely used in the analysis process of economic behaviours and economic variables, such as utility, cost, output, income, profit, consumption, savings, investment, factor efficiency and so on. Inframarginal analysis is to add a "super" on the basis of marginal analysis, and this "super" is another step.
