  2. MUSCL scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MUSCL_scheme

    The idea is to replace the piecewise constant approximation of Godunov's scheme by reconstructed states, derived from cell-averaged states obtained from the previous time-step. For each cell, slope limited, reconstructed left and right states are obtained and used to calculate fluxes at the cell boundaries (edges).

  3. Volume of fluid method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_of_fluid_method

    It is a scalar function, defined as the integral of a fluid's characteristic function in the control volume, namely the volume of a computational grid cell. The volume fraction of each fluid is tracked through every cell in the computational grid, while all fluids share a single set of momentum equations, i.e. one for each spatial direction.

  4. Cobweb plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobweb_plot

    An animated cobweb diagram of the logistic map = (), showing chaotic behaviour for most values of >. A cobweb plot , known also as Lémeray Diagram or Verhulst diagram is a visual tool used in the dynamical systems field of mathematics to investigate the qualitative behaviour of one-dimensional iterated functions , such as the logistic map .

  5. Scalar projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalar_projection

    The term scalar component refers sometimes to scalar projection, as, in Cartesian coordinates, the components of a vector are the scalar projections in the directions of the coordinate axes.

  6. Quartic interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartic_interaction

    Each internal line is represented by a factor 1/(q 2 + m 2), where q is the momentum flowing through that line. Any unconstrained momenta are integrated over all values. The result is divided by a symmetry factor, which is the number of ways the lines and vertices of the graph can be rearranged without changing its connectivity.

  7. Direct stiffness method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_stiffness_method

    The first step when using the direct stiffness method is to identify the individual elements which make up the structure. Once the elements are identified, the structure is disconnected at the nodes, the points which connect the different elements together. Each element is then analyzed individually to develop member stiffness equations.

  8. Bode plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bode_plot

    The initial slope of the function at the initial value depends on the number and order of zeros and poles that are at values below the initial value, and is found using the first two rules. To handle irreducible 2nd-order polynomials, a x 2 + b x + c {\displaystyle ax^{2}+bx+c} can, in many cases, be approximated as ( a x + c ) 2 {\displaystyle ...

  9. Distance from a point to a line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Distance_from_a_point_to_a_line

    Diagram for geometric proof. This proof is valid only if the line is not horizontal or vertical. [5] Drop a perpendicular from the point P with coordinates (x 0, y 0) to the line with equation Ax + By + C = 0. Label the foot of the perpendicular R. Draw the vertical line through P and label its intersection with the given line S.
