  2. System equivalence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_equivalence

    Equivalent systems can be used to change large and expensive mechanical, thermal, and fluid systems into a simple, cheaper electrical system. Then the electrical system can be analyzed to validate that the system dynamics will work as designed. This is a preliminary inexpensive way for engineers to test that their complex system performs the ...

  3. Slider-crank linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slider-crank_linkage

    These equations express the link lengths, L 1, L 2, and L 3, as a function of the stroke,(ΔR 4) max, the imbalance angle, β, and the angle of an arbitrary line M, θ M. Arbitrary line M is a designer-unique line that runs through the crank pivot point and the extreme retracted slider position. The 3 equations are as follows:

  4. Hydraulic analogy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_analogy

    If the differential equations are equivalent in form, the dynamics of the systems they describe will be related. The example hydraulic equations approximately describe the relationship between a constant, laminar flow in a cylindrical pipe and the difference in pressure at each end, as long as the flow is not analyzed near the ends of the pipe.

  5. Feedback linearization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feedback_linearization

    To ensure that the transformed system is an equivalent representation of the original system, the transformation must be a diffeomorphism. That is, the transformation must not only be invertible (i.e., bijective), but both the transformation and its inverse must be smooth so that differentiability in the original coordinate system is preserved ...

  6. Pipe network analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_network_analysis

    This is equivalent mathematically to the statement that on any closed loop in the network, the head loss around the loop must vanish. If there are sufficient known flow rates, so that the system of equations given by (1) and (2) above is closed (number of unknowns = number of equations), then a deterministic solution can be obtained.

  7. List of equations in fluid mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_equations_in_fluid...

    Flux F through a surface, dS is the differential vector area element, n is the unit normal to the surface. Left: No flux passes in the surface, the maximum amount flows normal to the surface.

  8. Four-bar linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-bar_linkage

    The input-output equations of a spherical four-bar linkage can be applied to spatial four-bar linkages when the variables are replaced by dual numbers. [8] Note that the cited conference paper incorrectly conflates Moore-Penrose pseudoinverses with one-sided inverses of matrices, falsely claiming that the latter are unique whenever they exist.

  9. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

    This velocity is called the "feed" by machinists. The phrase speeds and feeds or feeds and speeds refers to two separate parameters in machine tool practice, cutting speed and feed rate. They are often considered as a pair because of their combined effect on the cutting process. Each, however, can also be considered and analyzed in its own right.
