  2. Method of dominant balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_dominant_balance

    In mathematics, the method of dominant balance approximates the solution to an equation by solving a simplified form of the equation containing 2 or more of the equation's terms that most influence (dominate) the solution and excluding terms contributing only small modifications to this approximate solution.

  3. Balance equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_equation

    These balance equations were first considered by Peter Whittle. [8] [9] The resulting equations are somewhere between detailed balance and global balance equations. Any solution to the local balance equations is always a solution to the global balance equations (we can recover the global balance equations by summing the relevant local balance ...

  4. Detailed balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detailed_balance

    A Markov process is called a reversible Markov process or reversible Markov chain if there exists a positive stationary distribution π that satisfies the detailed balance equations [13] =, where P ij is the Markov transition probability from state i to state j, i.e. P ij = P(X t = j | X t − 1 = i), and π i and π j are the equilibrium probabilities of being in states i and j, respectively ...

  5. Equation solving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_solving

    Solving an equation symbolically means that expressions can be used for representing the solutions. For example, the equation x + y = 2x – 1 is solved for the unknown x by the expression x = y + 1, because substituting y + 1 for x in the equation results in (y + 1) + y = 2(y + 1) – 1, a true statement. It is also possible to take the ...

  6. Hydrostatic equilibrium - Wikipedia

    Note finally that this last equation can be derived by solving the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations for the equilibrium situation where = = = = Then the only non-trivial equation is the -equation, which now reads + = Thus, hydrostatic balance can be regarded as a particularly simple equilibrium solution of the Navier–Stokes equations.

  7. Chemical equilibrium - Wikipedia

    When [H] is known, the free concentration [A] is calculated from the mass-balance equation in A. The diagram alongside, shows an example of the hydrolysis of the aluminium Lewis acid Al 3+ (aq) [ 22 ] shows the species concentrations for a 5 × 10 −6 M solution of an aluminium salt as a function of pH.

  8. Primitive equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_equations

    The primitive equations may be linearized to yield Laplace's tidal equations, an eigenvalue problem from which the analytical solution to the latitudinal structure of the flow may be determined. In general, nearly all forms of the primitive equations relate the five variables u, v, ω, T, W, and their evolution over space and time.

  9. Harmonic balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_balance

    Harmonic balance is a method used to calculate the steady-state response of nonlinear differential equations, [1] and is mostly applied to nonlinear electrical circuits. [2] [3] [4] It is a frequency domain method for calculating the steady state, as opposed to the various time-domain steady-state methods. The name "harmonic balance" is ...
