  2. Airy wave theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airy_wave_theory

    Wave energy is a quantity of primary interest, since it is a primary quantity that is transported with the wave trains. [20] As can be seen above, many wave quantities like surface elevation and orbital velocity are oscillatory in nature with zero mean (within the framework of linear theory).

  3. Spartan (chemistry software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spartan_(chemistry_software)

    Spartan is a molecular modelling and computational chemistry application from Wavefunction. [2] It contains code for molecular mechanics, semi-empirical methods, ab initio models, [3] density functional models, [4] post-Hartree–Fock models, [5] thermochemical recipes including G3(MP2) [6] and T1.

  4. Orbital velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_velocity

    Orbital velocity may refer to the following: The orbital angular velocity; The orbital speed of a revolving body in a gravitational field. The velocity of particles due to wave motion, such as those in wind waves; The equivalent velocity of a bound electron needed to produce its orbital kinetic energy

  5. Orbital state vectors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_state_vectors

    Orbital position vector, orbital velocity vector, other orbital elements. In astrodynamics and celestial dynamics, the orbital state vectors (sometimes state vectors) of an orbit are Cartesian vectors of position and velocity that together with their time () uniquely determine the trajectory of the orbiting body in space.

  6. Microbarom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbarom

    For wave trains with a very small difference in frequency (and thus wave numbers), this pattern of wave groups may have the same horizontal velocity as acoustic waves, more than 300 m/s, and will excite microbaroms. Wave groups generated by waves with opposing directions. The blue curve is the sum of the red and black.

  7. Characteristic energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_energy

    Every object in a 2-body ballistic trajectory has a constant specific orbital energy equal to the sum of its specific kinetic and specific potential energy: = = =, where = is the standard gravitational parameter of the massive body with mass , and is the radial distance from its center. As an object in an escape trajectory moves outward, its ...

  8. Wave nonlinearity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_nonlinearity

    Generally, skewed waves have a short and high wave crest and a long and flat wave trough. [6] A skewed wave shape results in larger orbital velocities under the wave crest compared to smaller orbital velocities under the wave trough. For waves having the same velocity variance, the ones with higher skewness result in a larger net sediment ...

  9. Stokes wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes_wave

    Stokes's first definition of wave celerity has, for a pure wave motion, the mean value of the horizontal Eulerian flow-velocity Ū E at any location below trough level equal to zero. Due to the irrotationality of potential flow, together with the horizontal sea bed and periodicity the mean horizontal velocity, the mean horizontal velocity is a ...
