The four-point flexural test provides values for the modulus of elasticity in bending, flexural stress, flexural strain and the flexural stress-strain response of the material. This test is very similar to the three-point bending flexural test. The major difference being that with the addition of a fourth bearing the portion of the beam between ...
Air displacement plethysmography (ADP, also known as whole-body air displacement plethysmography) is a recognized and scientifically validated densitometric method to measure human body composition. ADP is based on the same principles as the gold standard method of hydrostatic weighing , but through a densitometric technique that uses air ...
Creatine (/ ˈ k r iː ə t iː n / or / ˈ k r iː ə t ɪ n /) [1] is an organic compound with the nominal formula (H 2 N)(HN)CN(CH 3)CH 2 CO 2 H.It exists in various tautomers in solutions (among which are neutral form and various zwitterionic forms).
Kuiper's test is closely related to the better-known Kolmogorov–Smirnov test (or K-S test as it is often called). As with the K-S test, the discrepancy statistics D + and D − represent the absolute sizes of the most positive and most negative differences between the two cumulative distribution functions that are being compared
To determine if there is a significant difference between two means with equal sample sizes, the Newman–Keuls method uses a formula that is identical to the one used in Tukey's range test, which calculates the q value by taking the difference between two sample means and dividing it by the standard error:
In control theory, Ackermann's formula is a control system design method for solving the pole allocation problem for invariant-time systems by Jürgen Ackermann. [1] One of the primary problems in control system design is the creation of controllers that will change the dynamics of a system by changing the eigenvalues of the matrix representing the dynamics of the closed-loop system. [2]
The formula was first published by Felix Pollaczek in 1930 [2] and recast in probabilistic terms by Aleksandr Khinchin [3] two years later. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] In ruin theory the formula can be used to compute the probability of ultimate ruin (probability of an insurance company going bankrupt).
Actin is a family of globular multi-functional proteins that form microfilaments in the cytoskeleton, and the thin filaments in muscle fibrils.It is found in essentially all eukaryotic cells, where it may be present at a concentration of over 100 μM; its mass is roughly 42 kDa, with a diameter of 4 to 7 nm.
