The phrase "a residual term" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts such as mathematics, statistics, or economics to refer to a leftover or remaining component after other factors have been accounted for.
Example: "In the regression analysis, the residual term represents the difference between the observed and predicted values."
Alternatives: "remaining component" or "leftover term".
This phenomenon appears to be related to a residual term that appears in the momentum equations.
For the extra anisotropic term used for this purpose, the present study introduced a residual term after subtracting an eddy-viscosity form from the Bardina SGS-Reynolds-stress model [Bardina, J., Ferziger, J.H., Reynolds, W.C., 1980. Improved subgrid scale models for large eddy simulation. AIAA Paper 80-1357].
Stand-level outflow O at the flux-tower sites was estimated annually as a residual term in the vertical water balance (O = P − E − ΔS), with and without energy-closure adjustments to E. Six of the flux towers were located within or near the gauged White Gull Creek watershed (603 km2).
The overlap term is a residual term that arises because the areas' land size ranges overlap.
An instantaneous traction change is represented by the combination of a direct term calculated from the boundary-based method and a residual term calculated from the differences between two solutions of the domain-based methods.
By defining a residual term as y ′ =y i −y j, and omitting the bandwidth parameter g for simplicity, we have ∫ y i K ( ∥ y i − y j ∥ ) d y i = ∫ ( y j + y ′ ) K ( ∥ y ′ ∥ ) d y i ≈ y j, (4.8).
In SFA, the most efficient country has an inefficiency residual term that is equal to zero; all other countries with an inefficiency residual term less than zero are considered less efficient.
The model provides a set of fixed effects associated with the covariates (acting at the birth and village level) and an unexplained residual term or village level random effect.
For all models we then have T i j = μ i j + e i j, where μ i j denotes a regression equation (see below) and e i j is a normally distributed residual term (with mean zero and variance σ e 2 ) that accounts for any variability not explained by the regression equation.
To achieve much stronger robustness to facial occlusion, regularized robust coding (RRC) was proposed by designing a new robust representation residual term.
Effective use of a water balance approach requires thorough identification of sources of uncertainty around all terms in the analysis and can benefit from additional, independent information that can be used to interpret the accuracy of the residual term of a water balance.
