  2. EWMA chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EWMA_chart

    The EWMA chart is sensitive to small shifts in the process mean, but does not match the ability of Shewhart-style charts (namely the ¯ and R and ¯ and s charts) to detect larger shifts. [ 2 ] : 412 One author recommends superimposing the EWMA chart on top of a suitable Shewhart-style chart with widened control limits in order to detect both ...

  3. Dioptre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dioptre

    Illustration of the relationship between optical power in dioptres and focal length in metres. A dioptre (British spelling) or diopter (American spelling), symbol dpt (or D), is a unit of measurement with dimension of reciprocal length, equivalent to one reciprocal metre, 1 dpt = 1 m −1.

  4. Bayes' theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayes'_theorem

    Once again, the answer can be reached without using the formula by applying the conditions to a hypothetical number of cases. For example, if the factory produces 1,000 items, 200 will be produced by Machine A, 300 by Machine B, and 500 by Machine C. Machine A will produce 5% × 200 = 10 defective items, Machine B 3% × 300 = 9, and Machine C 1 ...

    Figure 1: Rangekeeper Coordinate System. The coordinate system has the target as its origin. The y axis value range to the target. US Navy rangekeepers during World War II used a moving coordinate system based on the line of sight (LOS) between the ship firing its gun (known as the "own ship") and the target (known as the "target").

  6. Maddox rod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maddox_rod

    The strength of the prism is increased until the streak of the light passes through the centre of the prism, as the strength of the prism indicates the amount of deviation present. The Maddox rod is a handheld instrument composed of red parallel plano convex cylinder lens , which refracts light rays so that a point source of light is seen as a ...

  7. Cunningham correction factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cunningham_correction_factor

    In fluid dynamics, the Cunningham correction factor, or Cunningham slip correction factor (denoted C), is used to account for non-continuum effects when calculating the drag on small particles. The derivation of Stokes' law , which is used to calculate the drag force on small particles, assumes a no-slip condition which is no longer correct at ...

  8. Formula for primes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formula_for_primes

    Because the set of primes is a computably enumerable set, by Matiyasevich's theorem, it can be obtained from a system of Diophantine equations. Jones et al. (1976) found an explicit set of 14 Diophantine equations in 26 variables, such that a given number k + 2 is prime if and only if that system has a solution in nonnegative integers: [7]

  9. Fourier transform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourier_transform

    The Poisson summation formula (PSF) is an equation that relates the Fourier series coefficients of the periodic summation of a function to values of the function's continuous Fourier transform. The Poisson summation formula says that for sufficiently regular functions f, ^ = ().
