  2. Virtual work - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_work

    The principle of virtual work then states: External virtual work is equal to internal virtual work when equilibrated forces and stresses undergo unrelated but consistent displacements and strains. It includes the principle of virtual work for rigid bodies as a special case where the internal virtual work is zero.

  3. Rigid body dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid_body_dynamics

    The static equilibrium of a mechanical system rigid bodies is defined by the condition that the virtual work of the applied forces is zero for any virtual displacement of the system. This is known as the principle of virtual work. [5] This is equivalent to the requirement that the generalized forces for any virtual displacement are zero, that ...

  4. Virtual particle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_particle

    A virtual particle is a theoretical transient particle that exhibits some of the characteristics of an ordinary particle, while having its existence limited by the uncertainty principle, which allows the virtual particles to spontaneously emerge from vacuum at short time and space ranges. [1]

  5. Virtual displacement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_displacement

    In analytical mechanics, a branch of applied mathematics and physics, a virtual displacement (or infinitesimal variation) shows how the mechanical system's trajectory can hypothetically (hence the term virtual) deviate very slightly from the actual trajectory of the system without violating the system's constraints.

  6. Generalized forces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_forces

    In the application of the principle of virtual work it is often convenient to obtain virtual displacements from the velocities of the system. For the n particle system, let the velocity of each particle P i be V i, then the virtual displacement δr i can also be written in the form [2] = = ˙, =, …,.

    Virtual work exposes management gaps, he went on, “and I think the default reaction has been, ‘bring everyone back, and we won’t have those gaps’. But those gaps exist in the real world ...

  8. History of variational principles in physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_variational...

    In the static analysis of objects under forces but fixed at mechanical equilibrium, the principle of virtual work imagines tiny mathematical shifts away from equilibrium. Each shift does work—energy lost or gained—against the forces, but the sum of all these bits of virtual work must be zero.
