  2. Potential gradient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_gradient

    The simplest definition for a potential gradient F in one dimension is the following: [1] = = where ϕ(x) is some type of scalar potential and x is displacement (not distance) in the x direction, the subscripts label two different positions x 1, x 2, and potentials at those points, ϕ 1 = ϕ(x 1), ϕ 2 = ϕ(x 2).

  3. Energy economics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_economics

    Energy economics is a broad scientific subject area which includes topics related to supply and use of energy in societies. [1] Considering the cost of energy services and associated value gives economic meaning to the efficiency at which energy can be produced. [2]

  4. Energy balance (energy economics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_balance_(energy...

    Energy balance, in terms of energy economics, is concerned with all processes within an organization that have a reference to energy. It derives from the ecobalance and has the ambition to analyze and verify the emergence, transformation and use of energy resources in an organization in detail. [ 1 ]

  5. Pressure-retarded osmosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-retarded_osmosis

    The ideal water potential between fresh water (right) and sea water (left) corresponds to a hydraulic head of 270 metres. Pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) is a technique to separate a solvent (for example, fresh water) from a solution that is more concentrated (e.g. sea water) and also pressurized.

  6. Gauge theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauge_theory

    This is because the electric field relates to changes in the potential from one point in space to another, and the constant C would cancel out when subtracting to find the change in potential. In terms of vector calculus , the electric field is the gradient of the potential, E = − ∇ V {\displaystyle \mathbf {E} =-\nabla V} .

  7. Adjoint state method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjoint_state_method

    The adjoint state method is a numerical method for efficiently computing the gradient of a function or operator in a numerical optimization problem. [1] It has applications in geophysics, seismic imaging, photonics and more recently in neural networks. [2] The adjoint state space is chosen to simplify the physical interpretation of equation ...

  9. Strain energy density function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_energy_density_function

    In other words, the strain energy density function can be expressed uniquely in terms of the principal stretches or in terms of the invariants of the left Cauchy–Green deformation tensor or right Cauchy–Green deformation tensor and we have: For isotropic materials,
