variability index
  دیشن ِ ورتندگی   
dišan-e vartandegi

Fr.: designation des étoiles variables   

A set of conventions used for naming → variable stars. Stars with existing → Bayer designations are not given new designations. Alternatively, the letters R through Z are used followed by the Latin genitive of the name of the hosting constellation. Otherwise, two letters of alphabet are used (334 combinations) with the Latin genitive of the name of the constellation. Finally, the letter V (variable) is used followed by numbers 335, 336, and so on. Some examples are: → P Cygni, → T Tauri, → FU Orionis, → EX Lupi, and → V2052 Oph.

variable; → star; → designation.

variance
  ورتایی   
vartâyi

Fr.: variance   

A measure of the scatter of the values of a random variable (X) about its mean (μ). Var(X) = E(X -μ)2. The positive square root of the variance is called the → standard deviation.

M.E., from O.Fr. variance, from L. variantia, from variare "to change," → vary.

Vartâyi quality noun from vartâ agent noun from vartidan, → vary.

variant
  ورتا   
vartâ

Fr.: variante   

1) Liable to or displaying variation.
2) Something that differs from a standard or type. For example, a different form of the same word.

vary.

variate
  ورتنده‌ی ِ کاتوره   
vartande-ye kâturé

Fr.: variable aléatoire   

A quantity which may take any of the values of a specified set with a specified relative frequency or probability. The variate is therefore often known as a → random variable.

L. variatus, p.p. of variare, → vary, + → -ate.

variable; → random.

variation
  ورتش   
varteš

Fr.: variation   

1) General: An instance of changing, or something that changes.
2) Astro.: The periodic inequality in the Moon's motion that results from the combined gravitational attraction of the Earth and the Sun. Its period is half the synodic month, that is 14.77 days, and the maximum longitude displacement is 39'29''.9.
See also: → calculus of variations, → annual variation, → secular variation.

M.E., from O.Fr. variation, from L. variationem (nominative variatio) "difference, change," from variatus, p.p. of variare "to change," → vary.

Varteš, verbal noun from vartidan, → vary.

variational
  ورتشی   
varteši

Fr.: variationnel   

Of or describing a → variation.

variation; → -al.

variational principle
  پروز ِ ورتشی   
parvaz-e varteši

Fr.: principe variationnel   

Any of the physical principles that indicate in what way the actual motion of a state of a mechanical system differs from all of its kinematically possible motions or states. Variational principles that express this difference for the motion or state of a system in each given instant of time are called → differential. These principles are equally applicable to both → holonomic and → nonholonomic systems. Variational principles that establish the difference between the actual motion of a system during a finite time interval and all of its kinematically possible motions are said to be → integral. Integral variational principles are valid only for holonomic systems. The main differential variational principles are: the → virtual work principle and → d'Alembert's principle.

variational; → principle.

variety
  ورتینه   
vartiné

Fr.: variété   

1) The quality or state of having different forms or types.
2) A number or collection of different things especially of a particular class.
3) Something differing from others of the same general kind.
4) Any of various groups of plants or animals ranking below a species (Merriam-Webster.com).

M.Fr. variété, from L. varietatem (nominative varietas) "difference, diversity; a kind, variety, species, sort," from varius, → various.

Vartiné, from vartin, → various, + noun/nuance suffix .

Varignon's theorem
  فربین ِ وری‌نیون   
farbin-e Varignon

Fr.: théorème de Varignon   

The → moment of the resultant of a → coplanar system of → concurrent forces about any center is equal to the algebraic sum of the moments of the component forces about that center.

Named after Pierre Varignon (1654-1722), a French mathematician, who outlined the fundamentals of statics in his book Projet d'une nouvelle mécanique (1687).

various
  ورتین   
vartin

Fr.: varié
