  2. FORM (symbolic manipulation system) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FORM_(symbolic...

    FORM has been the essential tool to calculate the higher-order QCD beta function. The mathematical structure of multiple zeta values has been researched with dedicated FORM programs. [2] The software package FormCalc which is widely used in the physics community to calculate Feynman diagrams is built on top of FORM.

  3. Vortex shedding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex_shedding

    A thrill ride, "VertiGo" at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio suffered vortex shedding during the winter of 2001, causing one of the three towers to collapse. The ride was closed for the winter at the time. [3] In northeastern Iran, the Hashemi-Nejad natural gas refinery's flare stacks suffered vortex shedding seven times from 1975 to 2003. Some ...

  4. Vortex sheet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex_sheet

    Continuous vortex sheet approximation by panel method. Roll-up of a vortex sheet due to an initial sinusoidal perturbation. Note that the integral in the above equation is a Cauchy principal value integral. The initial condition for a flat vortex sheet with constant strength is (,) =. The flat vortex sheet is an equilibrium solution.

  5. Kármán vortex street - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kármán_vortex_street

    Animation of vortex street created by a cylindrical object; the flow on opposite sides of the object is given different colors, showing that the vortices are shed from alternating sides of the object A look at the Kármán vortex street effect from ground level, as air flows quickly from the Pacific Ocean eastward over Mojave Desert mountains.

  6. Cylindrical coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylindrical_coordinate_system

    The ISO standard 31-11 recommends (ρ, φ, z), where ρ is the radial coordinate, φ the azimuth, and z the height. However, the radius is also often denoted r or s , the azimuth by θ or t , and the third coordinate by h or (if the cylindrical axis is considered horizontal) x , or any context-specific letter.

  7. Eddy (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_(fluid_dynamics)

    The general form for the Reynolds number flowing through a tube of radius r (or diameter d): = = where v is the velocity of the fluid, ρ is its density, r is the radius of the tube, and μ is the dynamic viscosity of the fluid. A turbulent flow in a fluid is defined by the critical Reynolds number, for a closed pipe this works out to approximately

  8. Optical vortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_vortex

    An optical singularity is a zero of an optical field. The phase in the field circulates around these points of zero intensity (giving rise to the name vortex). Vortices are points in 2D fields and lines in 3D fields (as they have codimension two). Integrating the phase of the field around a path enclosing a vortex yields an integer multiple of ...

  9. Kutta condition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kutta_condition

    The stagnation point on the topside of the airfoil then moves until it reaches the trailing edge. [1]: §§ 6.2, 6.3 The starting vortex eventually dissipates due to viscous forces. As the airfoil continues on its way, there is a stagnation point at the trailing edge. The flow over the topside conforms to the upper surface of the airfoil.
