  2. Aerodynamic potential-flow code - Wikipedia

    These panels will approximate the shape of the actual surface. This value of the various source and doublet terms may be evaluated at a convenient point (such as the centroid of the panel). Some assumed distribution of the source and doublet strengths (typically constant or linear) are used at points other than the centroid.

  3. Lambda2 method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambda2_method

    The Lambda2 method, or Lambda2 vortex criterion, is a vortex core line detection algorithm that can adequately identify vortices from a three-dimensional fluid velocity field. [1] The Lambda2 method is Galilean invariant , which means it produces the same results when a uniform velocity field is added to the existing velocity field or when the ...

  4. Sten scores - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sten_scores

    Like stanines, individual sten scores are demarcated by half standard deviations. Thus, a sten score of 5 includes all standard scores from -.5 to zero and is centered at -0.25 and a sten score of 4 includes all standard scores from -1.0 to -0.5 and is centered at -0.75. A sten score of 1 includes all standard scores below -2.0.

  5. Standard score - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_score

    Comparison of the various grading methods in a normal distribution, including: standard deviations, cumulative percentages, percentile equivalents, z-scores, T-scores. In statistics, the standard score is the number of standard deviations by which the value of a raw score (i.e., an observed value or data point) is above or below the mean value of what is being observed or measured.

  6. Vortex sheet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex_sheet

    Continuous vortex sheet approximation by panel method. Roll-up of a vortex sheet due to an initial sinusoidal perturbation. Note that the integral in the above equation is a Cauchy principal value integral. The initial condition for a flat vortex sheet with constant strength is (,) =. The flat vortex sheet is an equilibrium solution.

  7. Kármán vortex street - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kármán_vortex_street

    Animation of vortex street created by a cylindrical object; the flow on opposite sides of the object is given different colors, showing that the vortices are shed from alternating sides of the object A look at the Kármán vortex street effect from ground level, as air flows quickly from the Pacific Ocean eastward over Mojave Desert mountains.

  8. Two-dimensional point vortex gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-dimensional_point...

    The constant k i is the circulation of the fluid around the ith vortex. The Hamiltonian H is the interaction term of the fluid's integrated kinetic energy; it may be either positive or negative. The equations of motion simply reflect the drift of each vortex's position in the velocity field of the other vortices.

  9. Normal curve equivalent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_curve_equivalent

    The reason for the choice of the number 21.06 is to bring about the following result: If the scores are normally distributed (i.e. they follow the "bell-shaped curve") then the normal equivalent score is 99 if the percentile rank of the raw score is 99; the normal equivalent score is 50 if the percentile rank of the raw score is 50;
