  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.

    Interstitial fauna, small aquatic invertebrates, larger than microfauna but smaller than macrofauna; Interstitial fluid, a solution that bathes and surrounds the cells of multicellular animals; Interstitial deletion and duplication in genetics, see Deletion (genetics) § Types and Gene duplication; Interstitial granulomatous dermatitis ...

  5. 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 ...

  6. 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. Diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion

    In applications to gas dynamics, the diffusion flux and the bulk flow should be joined in one system of transport equations. The bulk flow describes the mass transfer. Its velocity V is the mass average velocity. It is defined through the momentum density and the mass concentrations:

  8. Dislocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dislocation

    Dislocation velocity is largely dependent upon shear stress and temperature, and can often be fit using a power law function: [14] = where is a material constant, is the applied shear stress, is a constant that decreases with increasing temperature. Increased shear stress will increase the dislocation velocity, while increased temperature will ...

  9. Darcy's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy's_law

    Darcy's law is an equation that describes the flow of a fluid through a porous medium and through a Hele-Shaw cell.The law was formulated by Henry Darcy based on results of experiments [1] on the flow of water through beds of sand, forming the basis of hydrogeology, a branch of earth sciences.
