An Eulerian cycle, [note 1] also called an Eulerian circuit or Euler tour, in an undirected graph is a cycle that uses each edge exactly once. If such a cycle exists, the graph is called Eulerian or unicursal. [4] The term "Eulerian graph" is also sometimes used in a weaker sense to denote a graph where every vertex has even degree.
The Lagrangian and Eulerian specifications of the kinematics and dynamics of the flow field are related by the material derivative (also called the Lagrangian derivative, convective derivative, substantial derivative, or particle derivative). [1] Suppose we have a flow field u, and we are also given a generic field with Eulerian specification F ...
u(x, t) is the Eulerian velocity, x is the position vector in the Eulerian coordinate system, α is the position vector in the Lagrangian coordinate system, t is time. Often, the Lagrangian coordinates α are chosen to coincide with the Eulerian coordinates x at the initial time t = t 0: [5]
In 1736, Euler showed that G has an Eulerian circuit if and only if G is connected and the indegree is equal to outdegree at every vertex. In this case G is called Eulerian. We denote the indegree of a vertex v by deg(v). The BEST theorem states that the number ec(G) of Eulerian circuits in a connected Eulerian graph G is given by the formula
Because timelike geodesics are maximal, one may apply the Euler–Lagrange equation directly, and thus obtain a set of equations equivalent to the geodesic equations. This method has the advantage of bypassing a tedious calculation of Christoffel symbols.
In computational fluid dynamics, the Lagrangian particle tracking (or in short LPT method) is a numerical technique for simulated tracking of particle paths Lagrangian within an Eulerian phase. It is also commonly referred to as Discrete Particle Simulation (DPS).
Since the graph corresponding to historical Königsberg has four nodes of odd degree, it cannot have an Eulerian path. An alternative form of the problem asks for a path that traverses all bridges and also has the same starting and ending point. Such a walk is called an Eulerian circuit or an Euler tour. Such a circuit exists if, and only if ...
The direction the path takes will be determined by the streamlines of the fluid at each moment in time. Timelines are the lines formed by a set of fluid particles that were marked at a previous instant in time, creating a line or a curve that is displaced in time as the particles move.
