    A Differential of Multiple Linear Regression

    Say you have a log-level regression as follows: $$\log Y = \beta_0 + \beta_1 X_1 + \beta_1 X_2 + \ldots + \beta_n X_n$$ We're trying come up with a meaningful interpretation for changes Y due to a change in some Xk. If we take the partial derivative with respect to Xk. we end up with...

    Is there such a thing as multiple simulation?

    We know that a computer can simulate phenomena. Is it possible to simulate the same phenomena partially on different computers simultaneously? For example, Computer 1 simulates the front of a statue. Computer 2 simulates the back of a statue. Computer 3 simulates the birds eye view of a statue...

    Confusion with multiple impulses

    Suppose I have a body of mass M kept on a horizontal smooth surface. I strike that particle with some force ,providing an impulse J_1. The applied force is in vertically downward direction. Suppose that the body deforms in this process and it doesn't rebound. What I want to know is, whether the...

    Multiple rotors on a wind turbine

    Could multiple, smaller rotors on a wind turbine (on the same shaft) be more effective than a single, larger rotor? Why do most wind turbines have only one big rotor? I was thinking about doing a science fair project on this topic, but I have been unable to find a conclusive answer to this...

    AC Mains Distribution energized from multiple AC voltage sources

    Even though its possible to keep a bus charged from more than one AC voltage sources, what can be the consequences of doing so? My thoughts: - Assuming thst both the sources have similar (but not equal) phase and magnitude, we can expect small circulating currents. Which brings into question the...

    How does one dimensional light warp multiple dimensions?

    If light is one dimensional, yet has gravity, and gravity is the warpage of spacetime, and spacetime has four dimensions, then how does a one dimensional wave/particle warp multiple dimensions?

    A Statistical analysis for comparing trends among multiple variables

    In our study, we measured the seasonal abundance of selected genes from two sites. We want to make a comparison between the seasonal trends between the genes (i.e. which genes had similar trends and which didn't). What would be the best statistical analysis for this purpose? Thanks!

    B A single or multiple equations of 'y'?

    Hello. I have an object that I want to talk about. The object above does not seem to have numbers in a definite pattern, so, I think that this object will not have a single equation that describes the object, but instead there will be multiple number of equations of 'y' in 'x'. Correct?
