  2. Kinematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinematics

    The formula for the acceleration A P can now be obtained as: = ˙ + + (), or = / + / +, where α is the angular acceleration vector obtained from the derivative of the angular velocity vector; / =, is the relative position vector (the position of P relative to the origin O of the moving frame M); and = ¨ is the acceleration of the origin of ...

  3. Burgers vortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burgers_vortex

    Explicit solution of the Navier–Stokes equations for the Burgers vortex in stretched cylindrical stagnation surfaces was solved by P. Rajamanickam and A. D. Weiss. [14] The solution is expressed in the cylindrical coordinate system as follows

  4. Del in cylindrical and spherical coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Del_in_cylindrical_and...

    This article uses the standard notation ISO 80000-2, which supersedes ISO 31-11, for spherical coordinates (other sources may reverse the definitions of θ and φ): . The polar angle is denoted by [,]: it is the angle between the z-axis and the radial vector connecting the origin to the point in question.

  5. Cylindrical coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylindrical_coordinate_system

    A cylindrical coordinate system is a three-dimensional coordinate system that specifies point positions by the distance from a chosen reference axis (axis L in the image opposite), the direction from the axis relative to a chosen reference direction (axis A), and the distance from a chosen reference plane perpendicular to the axis (plane ...

  6. Vector fields in cylindrical and spherical coordinates

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_fields_in...

    Note: This page uses common physics notation for spherical coordinates, in which is the angle between the z axis and the radius vector connecting the origin to the point in question, while is the angle between the projection of the radius vector onto the x-y plane and the x axis. Several other definitions are in use, and so care must be taken ...

  7. Impact depth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impact_depth

    For a cylindrical impactor, by the time it stops, it will have penetrated to a depth that is equal to its own length times its relative density with respect to the target material. This approach is only valid for a narrow range of velocities less than the speed of sound within the target or impactor material.

  8. MOOSE (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MOOSE_(software)

    A Kernel is a "piece" of physics. To add new physics to an application built using MOOSE, all that is required is to supply a new Kernel that describes the discrete form of the equation. It's usually convenient to think of a Kernel as a mathematical operator, such as a Laplacian or a convection term in a partial differential equation (PDE ...

  9. Bessel beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bessel_beam

    The mathematical function which describes a Bessel beam is a solution of Bessel's differential equation, which itself arises from separable solutions to Laplace's equation and the Helmholtz equation in cylindrical coordinates. The fundamental zero-order Bessel beam has an amplitude maximum at the origin, while a high-order Bessel beam (HOBB ...
