Functions Not Passing Through the Origin

Deviations from a curve thought to be a straight line y = mx + b, not passing through the origin (b 0), are [Pg.63]

Note that m and b do not have subscripts because there is only one slope and one intercept they are the minimization parameters for the least squares function. Now there are two minimization conditions [Pg.63]

The coefficient matrix and nonhomogeneous vector can be made up simply by taking sums of the experimental results or the sums of squares or products of results, all of which are real numbers readily calculated from the data set. [Pg.64]

Solving the normal equations by Cramer s rule leads to the solution set in determinantal fomi [Pg.64]

Find the slope and intercept of a straight line not passing through the origin of the data set [Pg.65]


Expand the three detemiinants D, Dt, and for the least squares fit to a linear function not passing through the origin so as to obtain explicit algebraic expressions for b and m, the y-intercept and the slope of the best straight line representing the experimental data. [Pg.79]

The work requirement for any vapor-compression process is a linear function of the temperature difference across the evaporating surface, at least up to a At of 20° F. This straight lines does not pass through the origin because of the effect of BPE. [Pg.20]

If plots in Fig. 10.3 are not straight lines the reaction is not of first order. For second order reaction, instead of- tog (1 - a ), a different function of a needs to be plotted along the Y-axis. This function is 1/(1 - a ). This time the plots would be straight lines, but not passing through the origin. [Pg.100]

The Jenike failure function necessitates the measurement of a number of yield loci (minimum 3) to obtain both fa and ai values. The relationship between fa and ai may be linear or non-linear but must not pass through the origin of the graph. [Pg.36]

The intensity of the emitted fluorescence In is, therefore, directly proportional to the amount of substance applied a This relationship is much simpler than the Kubelka-Munk function and always leads to a linear calibration curve passing through the origin If this is not true then interference is occurring [5]... [Pg.40]

Figure 7 shows the formose reaction-rate as a function of molarity of calcium hydroxide in the product. One line, independent of the concentration of formaldehyde in the reactor, fits data at intermediate conversion-levels this line passes through the origin. In a study of the selfaddition of formaldehyde catalyzed by magnesium oxide, Schmalfusz and Kalle observed similar behavior, almost independent of concentrations of formaldehyde and first-order in magnesium oxide that had not been consumed in the Cannizzaro reaction. A zero-order rate-constant... [Pg.193]

Comparison with the LLM reveals that the boundary is not constrained to pass through the origin but a cut-off point is included into the model. Application of LDA gives the discriminant function... [Pg.187]

Accordingly l/C should be a linear function of as indeed was found to be the case (Fig. 129). The curves do not always pass through the origin because there is an uncertainty in fixing the tinie of the beginning of the experiment. [Pg.355]

A similar experiment was carried out for NO and the results are reported in Fig. 11.12b. In this experiment, the dry feed NH3 and NO2 concentrations were kept constant at 1,000 and 500 ppm, respectively, while the NO feed concentration was varied from 0 to 900 ppm. O2 was not fed in order to avoid the occurrence of the standard SCR and NH3 oxidation by O2 reactions. The total NOx consumption rate is an increasing function of the NO concentration at all temperatures but steeper at lower concentrations, indicating an apparent NO order less than unity. This is in contrast to an order of unity for the standard SCR reaction (Fig. 11.10). Like the results with NH3 in Fig. 11.12a, the NO2 consumption rate exceeds the NO consumption rate. In contrast with the NH3 experiment, however, at a NO concentration of zero the NO2 consumption rate is nonzero due to the direct reaction between NO2 and NH3 that does not require NO. On the other hand, the NO consumption rate passes through the origin. That the NO consumption rate is nonzero in the absence of O2 points to reaction of NO with surface nitrates, forming NO2 i.e., reverse of reaction S5. [Pg.337]

The node structure of ls2p helium for very accurate wavefunctiotis has been examined in detail. It should be noted that the nodal surface is not a simple plane passing through the origin in the three-dimensional space of one or the other of the electrons. The wavefunction is not the product function / = ls(l)2p(2), and its node structure is not that of the product function. The node structure is similar to that of the determinantal function and much different from that of the product function. It is illustrated in Figure 3. [Pg.149]

In 1967, Williams and Birks, showed that it was possible for a simple powder to possess a linear failure function which also passes through the origin[5]. Such a failure function can not give a intersection with a line whose slope is equal to the reciprocal of the flow factor (part of the design procedure) and also passes through zero. Should the failure function lie above the flow factor line, the powder will not flow out of the channel while, if lying below, it will flow out of an infinity small hole, according to the theory. Clearly this latter statement needs further examination. [Pg.103]
