  2. Euler's laws of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_laws_of_motion

    Euler's second law states that the rate of change of angular momentum L about a point that is fixed in an inertial reference frame (often the center of mass of the body), is equal to the sum of the external moments of force acting on that body M about that point: [1] [4] [5]

  3. Euler equations (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_equations_(fluid...

    The compressible Euler equations consist of equations for conservation of mass, balance of momentum, and balance of energy, together with a suitable constitutive equation for the specific energy density of the fluid. Historically, only the equations of conservation of mass and balance of momentum were derived by Euler.

  4. Euler's equations (rigid body dynamics) - Wikipedia

    In classical mechanics, Euler's rotation equations are a vectorial quasilinear first-order ordinary differential equation describing the rotation of a rigid body, using a rotating reference frame with angular velocity ω whose axes are fixed to the body. They are named in honour of Leonhard Euler.

  5. Euler's pump and turbine equation - Wikipedia

    With the help of these equations the head developed by a pump and the head utilised by a turbine can be easily determined. As the name suggests these equations were formulated by Leonhard Euler in the eighteenth century. [1] These equations can be derived from the moment of momentum equation when applied for a pump or a turbine.

  6. Balance of angular momentum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_of_angular_momentum

    In 1744, Euler was the first to use the principles of momentum and of angular momentum to state the equations of motion of a system. In 1750, in his treatise "Discovery of a new principle of mechanics" [ 3 ] he published the Euler's equations of rigid body dynamics , which today are derived from the balance of angular momentum, which Euler ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid_body_dynamics

    The fundamental equation describing the behavior of a rotating solid body is Euler's equation of motion: = = + = + = + where the pseudovectors τ and L are, respectively, the torques on the body and its angular momentum, the scalar I is its moment of inertia, the vector ω is its angular velocity, the vector α is its angular acceleration, D is ...

  9. Euler–Lagrange equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler–Lagrange_equation

    The equations were discovered in the 1750s by Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler and Italian mathematician Joseph-Louis Lagrange. Because a differentiable functional is stationary at its local extrema , the Euler–Lagrange equation is useful for solving optimization problems in which, given some functional, one seeks the function minimizing or ...
