  2. Self-similar solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-similar_solution

    Self-similar solutions appear whenever the problem lacks a characteristic length or time scale (for example, the Blasius boundary layer of an infinite plate, but not of a finite-length plate). These include, for example, the Blasius boundary layer or the Sedov–Taylor shell .

  4. Linear dynamical system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_dynamical_system

    Linear dynamical systems are dynamical systems whose evolution functions are linear.While dynamical systems, in general, do not have closed-form solutions, linear dynamical systems can be solved exactly, and they have a rich set of mathematical properties.

  5. Linear complementarity problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_complementarity_problem

    If M is such that LCP(q, M) has a solution for every q, then M is a Q-matrix. If M is such that LCP(q, M) have a unique solution for every q, then M is a P-matrix. Both of these characterizations are sufficient and necessary. [4] The vector w is a slack variable, [5] and so is generally discarded after z is found. As such, the problem can also ...

    An animation of the figure-8 solution to the three-body problem over a single period T ≃ 6.3259 [13] 20 examples of periodic solutions to the three-body problem. In the 1970s, Michel Hénon and Roger A. Broucke each found a set of solutions that form part of the same family of solutions: the Broucke–Hénon–Hadjidemetriou family. In this ...

  8. Hamiltonian system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamiltonian_system

    One example is the planetary movement of three bodies: while there is no closed-form solution to the general problem, Poincaré showed for the first time that it exhibits deterministic chaos. Formally, a Hamiltonian system is a dynamical system characterised by the scalar function H ( q , p , t ) {\displaystyle H({\boldsymbol {q}},{\boldsymbol ...

  9. Rigid body dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid_body_dynamics

    The solution of these equations of motion provides a description of the position, the motion and the acceleration of the individual components of the system, and overall the system itself, as a function of time. The formulation and solution of rigid body dynamics is an important tool in the computer simulation of mechanical systems.
