  2. Simple harmonic motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_harmonic_motion

    The motion of a body in which it moves to and from about a definite point is also called oscillatory motion or vibratory motion. The time period is able to be calculated by T = 2 π l g {\displaystyle T=2\pi {\sqrt {\frac {l}{g}}}} where l is the distance from rotation to center of mass of object undergoing SHM and g being gravitational ...

  3. Pulsatile flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsatile_flow

    The flow profiles was first derived by John R. Womersley (1907–1958) in his work with blood flow in arteries. [1] The cardiovascular system of chordate animals is a very good example where pulsatile flow is found, but pulsatile flow is also observed in engines and hydraulic systems, as a result of rotating mechanisms pumping the fluid.

  4. Periodic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_function

    Periodic motion is motion in which the position(s) of the system are expressible as periodic functions, all with the same period. For a function on the real numbers or on the integers , that means that the entire graph can be formed from copies of one particular portion, repeated at regular intervals.

  5. Harmonic motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_motion

    Harmonic motion can mean: the displacement of the particle executing oscillatory motion that can be expressed in terms of sine or cosine functions known as harmonic motion . The motion of a Harmonic oscillator (in physics), which can be: Simple harmonic motion; Complex harmonic motion

  6. Keulegan–Carpenter number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keulegan–Carpenter_number

    The Strouhal number gives the vortex shedding frequency resulting from placing an object in a steady flow, so it describes the flow unsteadiness as a result of an instability of the flow downstream of the object. Conversely, the Keulegan–Carpenter number is related to the oscillation frequency of an unsteady flow into which the object is placed.

  7. Navier–Stokes equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Navier–Stokes_equations

    Examples of degenerate cases—with the non-linear terms in the Navier–Stokes equations equal to zero—are Poiseuille flow, Couette flow and the oscillatory Stokes boundary layer. But also, more interesting examples, solutions to the full non-linear equations, exist, such as Jeffery–Hamel flow , Von Kármán swirling flow , stagnation ...

  8. Rotational–vibrational coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotational–vibrational...

    The angular velocity of the motion with respect to the rotating coordinate system is 2ω, twice the angular velocity of the overall motion. The spring is continuously doing work. More precisely, the spring is oscillating between doing positive work (increasing the weight's kinetic energy) and doing negative work (decreasing the weight's kinetic ...

  9. Oscillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscillation

    Oscillation is the repetitive or periodic variation, typically in time, of some measure about a central value (often a point of equilibrium) or between two or more different states. Familiar examples of oscillation include a swinging pendulum and alternating current .
