    Snap, [6] or jounce, [2] is the fourth derivative of the position vector with respect to time, or the rate of change of the jerk with respect to time. [4] Equivalently, it is the second derivative of acceleration or the third derivative of velocity, and is defined by any of the following equivalent expressions: = ȷ = = =.

    Further time derivatives have also been named, as snap or jounce (fourth derivative), crackle (fifth derivative), and pop (sixth derivative). [12] [13] The seventh derivative is known as "Bang," as it is a logical continuation to the cycle. The eighth derivative has been referred to as "Boom," and the 9th is known as "Crash."

    for the first derivative, for the second derivative, for the third derivative, and for the nth derivative. When f is a function of several variables, it is common to use "∂", a stylized cursive lower-case d, rather than "D". As above, the subscripts denote the derivatives that are being taken.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler–Bernoulli_beam_theory

    The beam equation contains a fourth-order derivative in . To find a unique solution w ( x , t ) {\displaystyle w(x,t)} we need four boundary conditions. The boundary conditions usually model supports , but they can also model point loads, distributed loads and moments.

  7. Quartic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartic_function

    The derivative of a quartic function is a cubic function. Sometimes the term biquadratic is used instead of quartic , but, usually, biquadratic function refers to a quadratic function of a square (or, equivalently, to the function defined by a quartic polynomial without terms of odd degree), having the form

  8. Finite difference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_difference

    In an analogous way, one can obtain finite difference approximations to higher order derivatives and differential operators. For example, by using the above central difference formula for f ′(x + ⁠ h / 2 ⁠) and f ′(x − ⁠ h / 2 ⁠) and applying a central difference formula for the derivative of f ′ at x, we obtain the central difference approximation of the second derivative of f:

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Fourth,_fifth,_and...

    And by your OWN sources admission the names are made up and there are no standards yet. Therefore the title should be something along the lines of "Derivative of Jerk" or "Fourth Derivative of Position" not Jounce which can be misleading. — Preceding unsigned comment added by B787 300 (talk • contribs) 02:35, 12 October 2012 (UTC)
