In fluid dynamics, the Kirchhoff equations, named after Gustav Kirchhoff, describe the motion of a rigid body in an ideal fluid. = + + +, = + +, = (~ +) = ^, = ^ where and are the angular and linear velocity vectors at the point , respectively; ~ is the moment of inertia tensor, is the body's mass; ^ is a unit normal vector to the surface of the body at the point ; is a pressure at this point ...
The current entering any junction is equal to the current leaving that junction. i 2 + i 3 = i 1 + i 4. This law, also called Kirchhoff's first law, or Kirchhoff's junction rule, states that, for any node (junction) in an electrical circuit, the sum of currents flowing into that node is equal to the sum of currents flowing out of that node; or equivalently:
Gustav Robert Kirchhoff (German: [ˈgʊs.taf ˈkɪʁçhɔf]; 12 March 1824 – 17 October 1887) was a German physicist, chemist and mathematican who contributed to the fundamental understanding of electrical circuits, spectroscopy and the emission of black-body radiation by heated objects.
Kirchhoff's laws, named after Gustav Kirchhoff, may refer to: Kirchhoff's circuit laws in electrical engineering; Kirchhoff's law of thermal radiation; Kirchhoff equations in fluid dynamics; Kirchhoff's three laws of spectroscopy; Kirchhoff's law of thermochemistry; Kirchhoff's theorem about the number of spanning trees in a graph
The Kirchhoff–Love theory of plates is a two-dimensional mathematical model that is used to determine the stresses and deformations in thin plates subjected to forces and moments. This theory is an extension of Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and was developed in 1888 by Love [ 1 ] using assumptions proposed by Kirchhoff .
Nodal analysis is essentially a systematic application of Kirchhoff's current law (KCL) for circuit analysis. Similarly, mesh analysis is a systematic application of Kirchhoff's voltage law (KVL). Nodal analysis writes an equation at each electrical node specifying that the branch currents incident at a node must sum to zero (using KCL). The ...
The governing equations for the dynamics of a Kirchhoff-Love plate are , = ¨, + (,) = ¨ ¨, where are the in-plane displacements of the mid-surface of the plate, is the transverse (out-of-plane) displacement of the mid-surface of the plate, is an applied transverse load pointing to (upwards), and the resultant forces and moments are defined as
In the Kirchhoff–Love plate theory for plates the governing equations are [1], = and , = In expanded form, + = ; + = and + + = where () is an applied transverse load per unit area, the thickness of the plate is =, the stresses are , and
