  2. Free body diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_body_diagram

    Block on a ramp and corresponding free body diagram of the block. In physics and engineering, a free body diagram (FBD; also called a force diagram) [1] is a graphical illustration used to visualize the applied forces, moments, and resulting reactions on a free body in a given condition. It depicts a body or connected bodies with all the ...

  3. Rindler coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rindler_coordinates

    Rindler chart, for = in equation (), plotted on a Minkowski diagram.The dashed lines are the Rindler horizons. The worldline of a body in hyperbolic motion having constant proper acceleration in the -direction as a function of proper time and rapidity can be given by [16]

  4. Lofting coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lofting_coordinates

    Two points on a fuselage at waterline 100/fuselage station 93 and waterline 101/fuselage station 276. Lofting coordinates are used for aircraft body measurements. The system derives from the one that was used in the shipbuilding lofting process, with longitudinal axis labeled as "stations" (usually fuselage stations, frame stations, FS), transverse axis as "buttocks lines" (or butt lines, BL ...

  5. Jacobi coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobi_coordinates

    The node in the binary tree corresponding to the virtual body has m j as its right child and m k as its left child. The order of children indicates the relative coordinate points from x k to x j. Repeat the above step for N − 1 bodies, that is, the N − 2 original bodies plus the new virtual body. For the N-body problem the result is: [2]

  6. Boyer–Lindquist coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boyer–Lindquist_coordinates

    The torsion-free spin connection is defined by d σ a + ω a b ∧ σ c η b c = 0 {\displaystyle d\sigma ^{a}+\omega ^{ab}\wedge \sigma ^{c}\eta _{bc}=0} The contorsion tensor gives the difference between a connection with torsion, and a corresponding connection without torsion.

  7. Kruskal–Szekeres coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kruskal–Szekeres_coordinates

    The Schwarzschild coordinate system can only cover a single exterior region and a single interior region, such as regions I and II in the Kruskal–Szekeres diagram. The Kruskal–Szekeres coordinate system, on the other hand, can cover a "maximally extended" spacetime which includes the region covered by Schwarzschild coordinates.

  8. Coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_system

    Another common coordinate system for the plane is the polar coordinate system. [7] A point is chosen as the pole and a ray from this point is taken as the polar axis. For a given angle θ, there is a single line through the pole whose angle with the polar axis is θ (measured counterclockwise from the axis to the line).
