  2. Static mesh - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_mesh

    Each material (i.e. each part of the Static Mesh using a separate texture) can be set to collide or not independently of the rest. The advantage of this method is that one part of the Static Mesh can collide while another doesn't (a common example: a tree's trunk collides, but its leaves don't).

  3. Collision detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collision_detection

    Even then, exact checks are not necessarily used in all cases. Because games do not need to mimic actual physics, stability is not as much of an issue. Almost all games use a posteriori collision detection, and collisions are often resolved using very simple rules. For instance, if a character becomes embedded in a wall, they might be simply ...

    One of these meshes is the highly complex and detailed shape visible to the player in the game, such as a vase with elegant curved and looping handles. For purpose of speed, a second, simplified invisible mesh is used to represent the object to the physics engine so that the physics engine treats the example vase as a simple cylinder.

  5. Finite element method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_element_method

    The mesh is an integral part of the model and must be controlled carefully to give the best results. Generally, the higher the number of elements in a mesh, the more accurate the solution of the discretized problem. However, there is a value at which the results converge, and further mesh refinement does not increase accuracy. [30]

    and it is most often less than unity. [7] Usually, the more complex the reactant molecules, the lower the steric factor. Nevertheless, some reactions exhibit steric factors greater than unity: the harpoon reactions, which involve atoms that exchange electrons, producing ions. The deviation from unity can have different causes: the molecules are ...

  7. Meshfree methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meshfree_methods

    In this simple example, the steps (here the spatial step and timestep ) are constant along all the mesh, and the left and right mesh neighbors of the data value at are the values at and +, respectively. Generally in finite differences one can allow very simply for steps variable along the mesh, but all the original nodes should be preserved and ...

  8. Guyan reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guyan_reduction

    In computational mechanics, Guyan reduction, [1] also known as static condensation, is a dimensionality reduction method which reduces the number of degrees of freedom by ignoring the inertial terms of the equilibrium equations and expressing the unloaded degrees of freedom in terms of the loaded degrees of freedom.

    This is a list of experiments at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The LHC is the most energetic particle collider in the world, and is used to test the accuracy of the Standard Model, and to look for physics beyond the Standard Model such as supersymmetry, extra dimensions, and others.
