  2. Dunkerley's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunkerley's_Method

    The whirling frequency of a symmetric cross section of a given length between two points is given by: = where: E = Young's modulus, I = second moment of area, m = mass of the shaft, L = length of the shaft between points.

  3. Characteristic velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characteristic_velocity

    Specific impulse and effective exhaust velocity are dependent on the nozzle design unlike the characteristic velocity, explaining why C-star is an important value when comparing different propulsion system efficiencies. c* can be useful when comparing actual combustion performance to theoretical performance in order to determine how completely ...

  4. Tsiolkovsky rocket equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsiolkovsky_rocket_equation

    A rocket's required mass ratio as a function of effective exhaust velocity ratio. The classical rocket equation, or ideal rocket equation is a mathematical equation that describes the motion of vehicles that follow the basic principle of a rocket: a device that can apply acceleration to itself using thrust by expelling part of its mass with high velocity and can thereby move due to the ...

  6. Van Deemter equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_Deemter_equation

    The van Deemter equation is a hyperbolic function that predicts that there is an optimum velocity at which there will be the minimum variance per unit column length and, thence, a maximum efficiency. The van Deemter equation was the result of the first application of rate theory to the chromatography elution process.

  7. Gurney equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gurney_equations

    The Gurney equations relate the following quantities: C - The mass of the explosive charge M - The mass of the accelerated shell or sheet of material (usually metal). The shell or sheet is often referred to as the flyer, or flyer plate. V or V m - Velocity of accelerated flyer after explosive detonation

  8. Protonation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protonation

    The protonation of isobutene in the formation of a carbocation: (CH 3) 2 C=CH 2 + HBF 4 ⇌ (CH 3) 3 C + + BF − 4; The protonation of ammonia in the formation of ammonium chloride from ammonia and hydrogen chloride: NH 3 + HCl → NH 4 Cl; Protonation is a fundamental chemical reaction and is a step in many stoichiometric and catalytic processes.

  9. Orbital state vectors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_state_vectors

    Orbital position vector, orbital velocity vector, other orbital elements. In astrodynamics and celestial dynamics, the orbital state vectors (sometimes state vectors) of an orbit are Cartesian vectors of position and velocity that together with their time () uniquely determine the trajectory of the orbiting body in space.
