  2. Lamb waves - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamb_waves

    The solution of these equations also reveals the precise form of the particle motion, which equations (1) and (2) represent in generic form only. It is found that equation (3) gives rise to a family of waves whose motion is symmetrical about the midplane of the plate (the plane z = 0), while equation (4) gives rise to a family of waves whose ...

  3. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_of_motion

    There are two main descriptions of motion: dynamics and kinematics.Dynamics is general, since the momenta, forces and energy of the particles are taken into account. In this instance, sometimes the term dynamics refers to the differential equations that the system satisfies (e.g., Newton's second law or Euler–Lagrange equations), and sometimes to the solutions to those equations.

    where denotes the surface normal direction of the solid structure, and the imaginary particle density is calculated through the equation of state. Accordingly, the interaction forces f a F : p {\displaystyle \mathbf {f} _{a}^{F:p}} and f a F : v {\displaystyle \mathbf {f} _{a}^{F:v}} acting on a solid particle a {\displaystyle a} are given by

  6. Stokes' law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes'_law

    Note the minus sign in the equation, the drag force points in the opposite direction to the relative velocity: drag opposes the motion. Stokes' law makes the following assumptions for the behavior of a particle in a fluid: Laminar flow; No inertial effects (zero Reynolds number) Spherical particles; Homogeneous (uniform in composition) material

  7. Mathematical formulation of the Standard Model - Wikipedia

    Standard Model of Particle Physics. The diagram shows the elementary particles of the Standard Model (the Higgs boson, the three generations of quarks and leptons, and the gauge bosons), including their names, masses, spins, charges, chiralities, and interactions with the strong, weak and electromagnetic forces.

  8. Classical central-force problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_central-force...

    In classical mechanics, the central-force problem is to determine the motion of a particle in a single central potential field.A central force is a force (possibly negative) that points from the particle directly towards a fixed point in space, the center, and whose magnitude only depends on the distance of the object to the center.

  9. Thermal velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_velocity

    Thermal velocity or thermal speed is a typical velocity of the thermal motion of particles that make up a gas, liquid, etc. Thus, indirectly, thermal velocity is a measure of temperature. Technically speaking, it is a measure of the width of the peak in the Maxwell–Boltzmann particle velocity distribution.
