  2. Vortex shedding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex_shedding

    Where is the dimensionless Strouhal number, is the vortex shedding frequency (Hz), is the diameter of the cylinder (m), and is the flow velocity (m/s). The Strouhal number depends on the Reynolds number R e {\displaystyle \mathrm {Re} } , [ 5 ] but a value of 0.22 is commonly used. [ 6 ]

  3. Steinmetz solid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steinmetz_solid

    The generation of a bicylinder Calculating the volume of a bicylinder. A bicylinder generated by two cylinders with radius r has the volume =, and the surface area [1] [6] =.. The upper half of a bicylinder is the square case of a domical vault, a dome-shaped solid based on any convex polygon whose cross-sections are similar copies of the polygon, and analogous formulas calculating the volume ...

  4. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    The region bounded by the cylindrical surface in either of the parallel planes is called a base of the cylinder. The two bases of a cylinder are congruent figures. If the elements of the cylinder are perpendicular to the planes containing the bases, the cylinder is a right cylinder, otherwise it is called an oblique cylinder.

  5. Mapping cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mapping_cylinder

    One can use the mapping cylinder to construct homotopy colimits: [citation needed] this follows from the general statement that any category with all pushouts and coequalizers has all colimits. That is, given a diagram, replace the maps by cofibrations (using the mapping cylinder) and then take the ordinary pointwise limit (one must take a bit ...

  6. Potential flow around a circular cylinder - Wikipedia

    On the surface of the cylinder, or r = R, pressure varies from a maximum of 1 (shown in the diagram in red) at the stagnation points at θ = 0 and θ = π to a minimum of −3 (shown in blue) on the sides of the cylinder, at θ = ⁠ π / 2 ⁠ and θ = ⁠ 3π / 2 ⁠. Likewise, V varies from V = 0 at the stagnation points to V = 2U on the ...

  7. Surface (topology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_(topology)

    Examples of closed surfaces include the sphere, the torus and the Klein bottle. Examples of non-closed surfaces include an open disk (which is a sphere with a puncture), an open cylinder (which is a sphere with two punctures), and the Möbius strip. A surface embedded in three-dimensional space is closed if and only if it is the boundary of a ...

  8. MapReduce - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MapReduce

    MapReduce is a programming model and an associated implementation for processing and generating big data sets with a parallel and distributed algorithm on a cluster. [1] [2] [3]A MapReduce program is composed of a map procedure, which performs filtering and sorting (such as sorting students by first name into queues, one queue for each name), and a reduce method, which performs a summary ...

  9. Dupin cyclide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dupin_cyclide

    The images of the tangent planes of the cylinder become the second pencil of spheres touching the cyclide. The latter ones pass through the origin. b) The second example inverses a cylinder that contains the origin. Lines passing the origin are mapped onto themselves. Hence the surface is unbounded and a parabolic cyclide.
