Electrical efficiencyThe efficiency of a system in electronics and electrical engineering is defined as useful power output divided by the total electrical power consumed (a fractional expression), typically denoted by the Greek small letter eta (η – ήτα). If energy output and input are expressed in the same units, efficiency is a dimensionless number. Where it is not customary or convenient to represent input and output energy in the same units, efficiency-like quantities have units associated with them.
Master's degreeA master's degree (from Latin magister) is a postgraduate academic degree awarded by universities or colleges upon completion of a course of study demonstrating mastery or a high-order overview of a specific field of study or area of professional practice. A master's degree normally requires previous study at the bachelor's level, either as a separate degree or as part of an integrated course.
Méthode des éléments finisEn analyse numérique, la méthode des éléments finis (MEF, ou FEM pour finite element method en anglais) est utilisée pour résoudre numériquement des équations aux dérivées partielles. Celles-ci peuvent par exemple représenter analytiquement le comportement dynamique de certains systèmes physiques (mécaniques, thermodynamiques, acoustiques).
