  2. Fluxional molecule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluxional_molecule

    In chemistry and molecular physics, fluxional (or non-rigid) molecules are molecules that undergo dynamics such that some or all of their atoms interchange between symmetry-equivalent positions. [1] Because virtually all molecules are fluxional in some respects, e.g. bond rotations in most organic compounds , the term fluxional depends on the ...

  3. Contact mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_mechanics

    A non-conforming contact is one in which the shapes of the bodies are dissimilar enough that, under zero load, they only touch at a point (or possibly along a line). In the non-conforming case, the contact area is small compared to the sizes of the objects and the stresses are highly concentrated in this area.

  4. Deformation (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deformation_(physics)

    In physics and continuum mechanics, deformation is the change in the shape or size of an object. It has dimension of length with SI unit of metre (m). It is quantified as the residual displacement of particles in a non-rigid body, from an initial configuration to a final configuration, excluding the body's average translation and rotation (its rigid transformation). [1]

  5. Rigid transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid_transformation

    Any object will keep the same shape and size after a proper rigid transformation. All rigid transformations are examples of affine transformations. The set of all (proper and improper) rigid transformations is a mathematical group called the Euclidean group, denoted E(n) for n-dimensional Euclidean spaces. The set of rigid motions is called the ...

  6. Free body diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_body_diagram

    A force arrow should lie along the line of force, but where along the line is irrelevant. A force on an extended rigid body is a sliding vector. non-rigid extended. The point of application of a force becomes crucial and has to be indicated on the diagram. A force on a non-rigid body is a bound vector. Some use the tail of the arrow to indicate ...

  7. Euclidean group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_group

    Examples of such groups are, in 1D, the group generated by a translation of 1 and one of √ 2, and, in 2D, the group generated by a rotation about the origin by 1 radian. Non-countable groups, where there are points for which the set of images under the isometries is not closed

  8. Non-Newtonian fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-Newtonian_fluid

    Applying force to oobleck, by sound waves in this case, makes the non-Newtonian fluid thicken. [21] An inexpensive, non-toxic example of a non-Newtonian fluid is a suspension of starch (e.g., cornstarch/cornflour) in water, sometimes called "oobleck", "ooze", or "magic mud" (1 part of water to 1.5–2 parts of corn starch).

  9. Kinematics of the cuboctahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinematics_of_the_cub...

    The rigid-edge and elastic-edge cuboctahedron transformations differ only in having reciprocal parameters: in the elastic-edge transformation the Jessen's icosahedron's short edges stretch and its long edges are rigid, and in the rigid-edge transformation its long edges compress and its short edges are rigid.
