  2. Sphere packing in a cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphere_packing_in_a_cylinder

    Optimal packing fraction for hard spheres of diameter inside a cylinder of diameter . Columnar structures arise naturally in the context of dense hard sphere packings inside a cylinder. Mughal et al. studied such packings using simulated annealing up to the diameter ratio of D / d = 2.873 {\textstyle D/d=2.873} for cylinder diameter D ...

  3. Standard asteroid physical characteristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_asteroid_physical...

    Barring detailed mass determinations, [4] the mass can be estimated from the diameter and assumed density values worked out as below. = Besides these estimations, masses can be obtained for the larger asteroids by solving for the perturbations they cause in each other's orbits, [5] or when the asteroid has an orbiting companion of known orbital radius.

  4. List of moments of inertia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_moments_of_inertia

    The expression ″thin″ indicates that the shell thickness is negligible. It is a special case of the thick-walled cylindrical tube of the same mass for r 1 = r 2. Also, a point mass m at the end of a rod of length r has this same moment of inertia and the value r is called the radius of gyration. Solid cylinder of radius r, height h and mass m.

  5. Churchill–Bernstein equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Churchill–Bernstein_equation

    The Churchill–Bernstein equation can be used for any object of cylindrical geometry in which boundary layers develop freely, without constraints imposed by other surfaces. Properties of the external free stream fluid are to be evaluated at the film temperature in order to account for the variation of the fluid properties at different ...

  6. Area density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_density

    A special type of area density is called column density (also columnar mass density or simply column density), denoted ρ A or σ. It is the mass of substance per unit area integrated along a path; [ 1 ] It is obtained integrating volumetric density ρ {\displaystyle \rho } over a column: [ 2 ] σ = ∫ ρ d s . {\displaystyle \sigma =\int \rho ...

    From left to right: a square, a cube and a tesseract.The square is two-dimensional (2D) and bounded by one-dimensional line segments; the cube is three-dimensional (3D) and bounded by two-dimensional squares; the tesseract is four-dimensional (4D) and bounded by three-dimensional cubes.

  8. Mass flux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_flux

    Mathematically, mass flux is defined as the limit =, where = = is the mass current (flow of mass m per unit time t) and A is the area through which the mass flows.. For mass flux as a vector j m, the surface integral of it over a surface S, followed by an integral over the time duration t 1 to t 2, gives the total amount of mass flowing through the surface in that time (t 2 − t 1): = ^.

  9. Cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder

    The definitions and results in this section are taken from the 1913 text Plane and Solid Geometry by George A. Wentworth and David Eugene Smith (Wentworth & Smith 1913).. A cylindrical surface is a surface consisting of all the points on all the lines which are parallel to a given line and which pass through a fixed plane curve in a plane not parallel to the given line.
