  2. Stoplogs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoplogs

    Stoplogs are modular in nature, giving the operator of a gated structure the ability to control the water level in a channel by adding or removing individual stoplogs. A gate may make use of one or more logs. Each log is lowered horizontally into a space or bay between two grooved piers referred to as a stoplog check.

  3. Log structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log_structure

    In algebraic geometry, a log structure provides an abstract context to study semistable schemes, and in particular the notion of logarithmic differential form and the related Hodge-theoretic concepts. This idea has applications in the theory of moduli spaces, in deformation theory and Fontaine's p-adic Hodge theory, among others.

  4. Kruskal's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kruskal's_algorithm

    Kruskal's algorithm [1] finds a minimum spanning forest of an undirected edge-weighted graph. If the graph is connected, it finds a minimum spanning tree. It is a greedy algorithm that in each step adds to the forest the lowest-weight edge that will not form a cycle. [2] The key steps of the algorithm are sorting and the use of a disjoint-set ...

    The log structure was made at least 476,000 years ago, while the wood tools are slightly younger, under 400,000 years old. That places the materials in a time before our species, Homo sapiens ...

  6. Logarithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithm

    e. In mathematics, the logarithm is the inverse function to exponentiation. That means that the logarithm of a number x to the base b is the exponent to which b must be raised to produce x. For example, since 1000 = 103, the logarithm base of 1000 is 3, or log10 (1000) = 3.

  7. Fatigue (material) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatigue_(material)

    The bright area is caused by sudden fracture. In materials science, fatigue is the initiation and propagation of cracks in a material due to cyclic loading. Once a fatigue crack has initiated, it grows a small amount with each loading cycle, typically producing striations on some parts of the fracture surface.

  8. Iterated logarithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iterated_logarithm

    Iterated logarithm. In computer science, the iterated logarithm of , written log * (usually read " log star "), is the number of times the logarithm function must be iteratively applied before the result is less than or equal to . [1] The simplest formal definition is the result of this recurrence relation :

  9. Log-structured file system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log-structured_file_system

    A log-structured filesystem is a file system in which data and metadata are written sequentially to a circular buffer, called a log.The design was first proposed in 1988 by John K. Ousterhout and Fred Douglis and first implemented in 1992 by Ousterhout and Mendel Rosenblum for the Unix-like Sprite distributed operating system.
