2. Dimensional analysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimensional_analysis

   In engineering and science, dimensional analysis is the analysis of the relationships between different physical quantities by identifying their base quantities (such as length, mass, time, and electric current) and units of measurement (such as metres and grams) and tracking these dimensions as calculations or comparisons are performed.

3. List of physical quantities - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physical_quantities

   Three dimensional extent of an object m 3: L 3: extensive, scalar Volumetric flow rate: Q: Rate of change of volume with respect to time m 3 ⋅s −1: L 3 T −1: extensive, scalar Wavelength: λ: Perpendicular distance between repeating units of a wave m L: Wavenumber: k: Repetency or spatial frequency: the number of cycles per unit distance ...

4. Multiple integral - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_integral

   Example of a domain transformation from cartesian to polar. Example 2c. The domain is D = {x 2 + y 2 ≤ 4}, that is a circumference of radius 2; it's evident that the covered angle is the circle angle, so φ varies from 0 to 2 π, while the crown radius varies from 0 to 2 (the crown with the inside radius null is just a circle). Example 2d.

5. Mathematical visualization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_visualization

   Mathematical visualization is used throughout mathematics, particularly in the fields of geometry and analysis. Notable examples include plane curves, space curves, polyhedra, ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations (particularly numerical solutions, as in fluid dynamics or minimal surfaces such as soap films), conformal ...

6. Fractal dimension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractal_dimension

   The terms fractal dimension and fractal were coined by Mandelbrot in 1975, [16] about a decade after he published his paper on self-similarity in the coastline of Britain. . Various historical authorities credit him with also synthesizing centuries of complicated theoretical mathematics and engineering work and applying them in a new way to study complex geometries that defied description in ...

7. Riemannian manifold - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemannian_manifold

   For example, integration leads to the Riemannian distance function, whereas differentiation is used to define curvature and parallel transport. Any smooth surface in three-dimensional Euclidean space is a Riemannian manifold with a Riemannian metric coming from the way it sits inside the ambient space.
