  2. Two-dimensional flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-dimensional_flow

    In fluid mechanics, a two-dimensional flow is a form of fluid flow where the flow velocity at every point is parallel to a fixed plane. The velocity at any point on a ...

  3. Circular flow of income - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_flow_of_income

    Basic diagram of the circular flow of income. The functioning of the free-market economic system is represented with firms and households and interaction back and forth. [2] The circular flow of income or circular flow is a model of the economy in which the major exchanges are represented as flows of money, goods and services, etc. between ...

  4. Stream function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stream_function

    The two-dimensional (or Lagrange) stream function, introduced by Joseph Louis Lagrange in 1781, [1] is defined for incompressible (divergence-free), two-dimensional flows. The Stokes stream function , named after George Gabriel Stokes , [ 2 ] is defined for incompressible, three-dimensional flows with axisymmetry .

  5. Ricci flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ricci_flow

    Cylinders S k × R l (for k ≥ 2) shrink self similarly under the Ricci flow up to diffeomorphisms; A significant 2-dimensional example is the cigar soliton, which is given by the metric (dx 2 + dy 2)/(e 4t + x 2 + y 2) on the Euclidean plane. Although this metric shrinks under the Ricci flow, its geometry remains the same.

  6. Curve-shortening flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve-shortening_flow

    A flow is a process in which the points of a space continuously change their locations or properties over time. More specifically, in a one-dimensional geometric flow such as the curve-shortening flow, the points undergoing the flow belong to a curve, and what changes is the shape of the curve, its embedding into the Euclidean plane determined by the locations of each of its points. [2]

  7. Disposable household and per capita income - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disposable_household_and...

    It includes every form of cash income, e.g., salaries and wages, retirement income, investment income and cash transfers from the government. It may include near-cash government transfers like food stamps , and it may be adjusted to include social transfers in-kind, such as the value of publicly provided health care and education.

  8. Circulation (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulation_(physics)

    In fluid dynamics, the lift per unit span (L') acting on a body in a two-dimensional flow field is directly proportional to the circulation, i.e. it can be expressed as the product of the circulation Γ about the body, the fluid density , and the speed of the body relative to the free-stream : ′ =

  9. Jeffery–Hamel flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffery–Hamel_flow

    The resulting flow is two-dimensional if the plates are infinitely long in the axial direction, or the plates are longer but finite, if one were neglect edge effects and for the same reason the flow can be assumed to be entirely radial i.e., = (,), =, =.
