  2. Soil mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_mechanics

    where = / has units of velocity and is called the Darcy velocity (or the specific discharge, filtration velocity, or superficial velocity). The pore or interstitial velocity is the average velocity of fluid molecules in the pores; it is related to the Darcy velocity and the porosity through the Dupuit-Forchheimer relationship

  3. Interstitial defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstitial_defect

    Interstitial atoms (blue) occupy some of the spaces within a lattice of larger atoms (red) In materials science, an interstitial defect is a type of point crystallographic defect where an atom of the same or of a different type, occupies an interstitial site in the crystal structure.

  4. Cottrell atmosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cottrell_atmosphere

    where is the diffusivity of the solute atom in the host material, is the atomic volume, is the velocity of the dislocation, is the diffusion flux density, and is the solute concentration. [5] The existence of the Cottrell atmosphere and the effects of viscous drag have been proven to be important in high temperature deformation at intermediate ...

  5. Interstitial site - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstitial_site

    In crystallography, interstitial sites, holes or voids are the empty space that exists between the packing of atoms (spheres) in the crystal structure. [ citation needed ] The holes are easy to see if you try to pack circles together; no matter how close you get them or how you arrange them, you will have empty space in between.

  7. Fick's laws of diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fick's_laws_of_diffusion

    Fick's first law relates the diffusive flux to the gradient of the concentration. It postulates that the flux goes from regions of high concentration to regions of low concentration, with a magnitude that is proportional to the concentration gradient (spatial derivative), or in simplistic terms the concept that a solute will move from a region of high concentration to a region of low ...

  8. Tyrode's solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyrode's_solution

    Tyrode's solution is a solution that is roughly isotonic with interstitial fluid and used in physiological experiments and tissue culture. It resembles lactated Ringer's solution , but contains magnesium , a sugar (usually glucose ) as an energy source and uses bicarbonate and phosphate as a buffer instead of lactate .

  9. Rayleigh problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_problem

    In fluid dynamics, Rayleigh problem also known as Stokes first problem is a problem of determining the flow created by a sudden movement of an infinitely long plate from rest, named after Lord Rayleigh and Sir George Stokes. This is considered as one of the simplest unsteady problems that have an exact solution for the Navier-Stokes equations.
