  3. Debye–Waller factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debye–Waller_factor

    where u is the displacement of a scattering center, and … denotes either thermal or time averaging. Assuming harmonicity of the scattering centers in the material under study, the Boltzmann distribution implies that q ⋅ u {\displaystyle \mathbf {q} \cdot \mathbf {u} } is normally distributed with zero mean.

  4. Anomalous diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anomalous_diffusion

    Mean squared displacement for different types of anomalous diffusion Anomalous diffusion is a diffusion process with a non-linear relationship between the mean squared displacement (MSD), r 2 ( τ ) {\displaystyle \langle r^{2}(\tau )\rangle } , and time.

  5. Fick's laws of diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fick's_laws_of_diffusion

    The particle's Mean squared displacement from its original position is: =, where is the dimension of the particle's Brownian motion. For example, the diffusion of a molecule across a cell membrane 8 nm thick is 1-D diffusion because of the spherical symmetry; However, the diffusion of a molecule from the membrane to the center of a eukaryotic ...

  6. Compatibility (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compatibility_(mechanics)

    The only displacement field that is allowed by a compatible plane strain field is a plane displacement field, i.e., = (,) . 3-dimensions. In three dimensions, in ...

  7. Gas pycnometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_pycnometer

    A gas pycnometer is a laboratory device used for measuring the density—or, more accurately, the volume—of solids, be they regularly shaped, porous or non-porous, monolithic, powdered, granular or in some way comminuted, employing some method of gas displacement and the volume:pressure relationship known as Boyle's law.

  8. Rietveld refinement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rietveld_refinement

    Rietveld refinement is a technique described by Hugo Rietveld for use in the characterisation of crystalline materials. The neutron and X-ray diffraction of powder samples results in a pattern characterised by reflections (peaks in intensity) at certain positions.

  9. Slip (materials science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_(materials_science)

    In materials science, slip is the large displacement of one part of a crystal relative to another part along crystallographic planes and directions. [1] Slip occurs by the passage of dislocations on close/packed planes, which are planes containing the greatest number of atoms per area and in close-packed directions (most atoms per length).
