Vortex is a 3D shooter game developed by Argonaut Software and released by Electro Brain for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in September 1994. [1] Titled Citadel during development, it is one of a few games designed to use the enhanced graphics of the Super FX powered GSU-1.
Megaton is a fictional town in the video game Fallout 3, part of the post-apocalyptic Fallout franchise. Located in the Capital Wasteland, the former Washington metropolitan area, Megaton is a fortified settlement housing dozens of survivors from a devastating nuclear war, constructed out of scrap metal and other scavenged materials.
Vortex Studio is a simulation software platform developed by CM Labs Simulations. It features a real-time physics engine that simulates rigid body dynamics , collision detection , contact determination, and dynamic reactions.
In fluid dynamics, a vortex (pl.: vortices or vortexes) [1] [2] is a region in a fluid in which the flow revolves around an axis line, which may be straight or curved. [3] [4] Vortices form in stirred fluids, and may be observed in smoke rings, whirlpools in the wake of a boat, and the winds surrounding a tropical cyclone, tornado or dust devil.
As the air leaves the louvers (3, 5) more rapidly, the vortex increases in speed. The air's momentum causes centrifugal forces on the air in the vortex, which reduce pressure in the vortex, narrowing it further. Narrowing further increases the vortex speed as conservation of momentum causes it to spin faster. The speed of spin is set by the ...
The Rankine vortex is a simple mathematical model of a vortex in a viscous fluid. It is named after its discoverer, William John Macquorn Rankine. The vortices observed in nature are usually modelled with an irrotational (potential or free) vortex. However, in a potential vortex, the velocity becomes infinite at the vortex center.
The Vortex lattice method, (VLM), is a numerical method used in computational fluid dynamics, mainly in the early stages of aircraft design and in aerodynamic education at university level. The VLM models the lifting surfaces, such as a wing , of an aircraft as an infinitely thin sheet of discrete vortices to compute lift and induced drag .
