  2. Steady-state model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steady-state_model

    In cosmology, the steady-state model or steady state theory is an alternative to the Big Bang theory. In the steady-state model, the density of matter in the expanding universe remains unchanged due to a continuous creation of matter, thus adhering to the perfect cosmological principle , a principle that says that the observable universe is ...

  3. Steady state (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steady_state_(chemistry)

    The steady state approximation, [1] occasionally called the stationary-state approximation or Bodenstein's quasi-steady state approximation, involves setting the rate of change of a reaction intermediate in a reaction mechanism equal to zero so that the kinetic equations can be simplified by setting the rate of formation of the intermediate equal to the rate of its destruction.

  4. Steady state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steady_state

    In systems theory, a system or a process is in a steady state if the variables (called state variables) which define the behavior of the system or the process are unchanging in time. In continuous time , this means that for those properties p of the system, the partial derivative with respect to time is zero and remains so:

  5. Control theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_theory

    Modern control theory is carried out in the state space, and can deal with multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) systems. This overcomes the limitations of classical control theory in more sophisticated design problems, such as fighter aircraft control, with the limitation that no frequency domain analysis is possible.

  6. Hermann Bondi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermann_Bondi

    Sir Hermann Bondi KCB FRS [1] (1 November 1919 – 10 September 2005) [7] was an Austrian-British mathematician and cosmologist.. He is best known for developing the steady state model of the universe with Fred Hoyle and Thomas Gold as an alternative to the Big Bang theory.

  7. Mass balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_balance

    Steady state; Non-reactive system; Analysis. Suppose that the slurry inlet composition (by mass) is 50% solid and 50% water, with a mass flow of 100 kg/min. The tank is assumed to be operating at steady state, and as such accumulation is zero, so input and output must be equal for both the solids and water.

  8. Heat equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_equation

    The steady-state heat equation for a volume that contains a heat source (the inhomogeneous case), is the Poisson's equation: − k ∇ 2 u = q {\displaystyle -k\nabla ^{2}u=q} where u is the temperature , k is the thermal conductivity and q is the rate of heat generation per unit volume.

  9. Fluid dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_dynamics

    A flow that is not a function of time is called steady flow. Steady-state flow refers to the condition where the fluid properties at a point in the system do not change over time. Time dependent flow is known as unsteady (also called transient [8]). Whether a particular flow is steady or unsteady, can depend on the chosen frame of reference.
