  2. Distance decay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_decay

    Distance decay is a geographical term which describes the effect of distance on cultural or spatial interactions. [1] The distance decay effect states that the interaction between two locales declines as the distance between them increases. Once the distance is outside of the two locales' activity space, their interactions begin to decrease.

  3. Logistic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logistic_function

    A logistic function or logistic curve is a common S-shaped curve ( sigmoid curve) with the equation. where. , the value of the function's midpoint; , the supremum of the values of the function; , the logistic growth rate or steepness of the curve. [1] Standard logistic function where. For values of in the domain of real numbers from to , the S ...

  4. Laplace transform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laplace_transform

    Eq.1) where s is a complex frequency domain parameter s = σ + i ω , {\displaystyle s=\sigma +i\omega ,} with real numbers σ and ω . An alternate notation for the Laplace transform is L { f } {\displaystyle {\mathcal {L}}\{f\}} instead of F . The meaning of the integral depends on types of functions of interest. A necessary condition for existence of the integral is that f must be locally ...

  7. Geometric progression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_progression

    greater than 1, there will be exponential growth towards positive or negative infinity (depending on the sign of the initial term). 1, the progression is a constant sequence. between −1 and 1 but not zero, there will be exponential decay towards zero (→ 0). −1, the absolute value of each term in the sequence is constant and terms ...

  8. Nuclear reactor physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_reactor_physics

    This has effects on how reactors are controlled: when a small amount of control rod is slid into or out of the reactor core, the power level changes at first very rapidly due to prompt subcritical multiplication and then more gradually, following the exponential growth or decay curve of the delayed critical reaction.

  9. List of representations of e - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_representations_of_e

    e. The mathematical constant e can be represented in a variety of ways as a real number. Since e is an irrational number (see proof that e is irrational ), it cannot be represented as the quotient of two integers, but it can be represented as a continued fraction. Using calculus, e may also be represented as an infinite series, infinite product ...
