  • Residual stress
    Residual stress
    Residual stresses are stresses that remain after the original cause of the stresses has been removed. They remain along a cross section of the component, even without the external cause. Residual stresses occur for a variety of reasons, including inelastic deformations and heat treatment...

In mathematics, statistics and econometrics, residual may refer to:
  • Errors and residuals in statistics
    Errors and residuals in statistics
    In statistics and optimization, statistical errors and residuals are two closely related and easily confused measures of the deviation of a sample from its "theoretical value"...

    • Studentized residual
      Studentized residual
      In statistics, a studentized residual is the quotient resulting from the division of a residual by an estimate of its standard deviation. Typically the standard deviations of residuals in a sample vary greatly from one data point to another even when the errors all have the same standard...

      Generalized minimal residual method
      In mathematics, the generalized minimal residual method is an iterative method for the numerical solution of a system of linear equations. The method approximates the solution by the vector in a Krylov subspace with minimal residual. The Arnoldi iteration is used to find this vector.The GMRES...
