  2. Thomson (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomson_(unit)

    The thomson (symbol: Th) is a unit that has appeared infrequently in scientific literature relating to the field of mass spectrometry as a unit of mass-to-charge ratio.The unit was proposed by R. Graham Cooks and Alan L. Rockwood [1] naming it in honour of J. J. Thomson who measured the mass-to-charge ratio of electrons and ions.

  3. Gibbs–Thomson equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbs–Thomson_equation

    The technique is closely related to using gas adsorption to measure pore sizes, but uses the Gibbs–Thomson equation rather than the Kelvin equation.They are both particular cases of the Gibbs Equations of Josiah Willard Gibbs: the Kelvin equation is the constant temperature case, and the Gibbs–Thomson equation is the constant pressure case.

  4. Thomson problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomson_problem

    The Thomson problem is a natural consequence of J. J. Thomson's plum pudding model in the absence of its uniform positive background charge. [ 12 ] "No fact discovered about the atom can be trivial, nor fail to accelerate the progress of physical science, for the greater part of natural philosophy is the outcome of the structure and mechanism ...

  5. Specific modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_modulus

    Examining the density formula, we see that the mass of a beam depends directly on the density. Thus if a beam's cross-sectional dimensions are constrained and weight reduction is the primary goal, performance of the beam will depend on Young's modulus divided by density.

  6. von Mises yield criterion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Von_Mises_yield_criterion

    As shown later in this article, at the onset of yielding, the magnitude of the shear yield stress in pure shear is √3 times lower than the tensile yield stress in the case of simple tension. Thus, we have: = where is tensile yield strength of the material. If we set the von Mises stress equal to the yield strength and combine the above ...

  7. Normal shock tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_shock_tables

    In aerodynamics, the normal shock tables are a series of tabulated data listing the various properties before and after the occurrence of a normal shock wave. [1] With a given upstream Mach number , the post-shock Mach number can be calculated along with the pressure , density , temperature , and stagnation pressure ratios.

  8. Strain hardening exponent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_hardening_exponent

    The strain hardening exponent (also called the strain hardening index), usually denoted , is a measured parameter that quantifies the ability of a material to become stronger due to strain hardening.

  9. Standard solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_solution

    In analytical chemistry, a standard solution (titrant or titrator) is a solution containing an accurately known concentration.Standard solutions are generally prepared by dissolving a solute of known mass into a solvent to a precise volume, or by diluting a solution of known concentration with more solvent.
