  2. Fourth, fifth, and sixth derivatives of position - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth,_fifth,_and_sixth...

    Snap, [6] or jounce, [2] is the fourth derivative of the position vector with respect to time, or the rate of change of the jerk with respect to time. [4] Equivalently, it is the second derivative of acceleration or the third derivative of velocity, and is defined by any of the following equivalent expressions: = ȷ = = =.

  3. Jerk (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerk_(physics)

    In mechanical engineering, jerk, in addition to velocity and acceleration, is considered in the development of cam profiles because of tribological implications and the ability of the actuated body to follow the cam profile without chatter. [11] Jerk is often considered when vibration is a concern. A device that measures jerk is called a ...

  4. Verlet integration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verlet_integration

    Verlet integration (French pronunciation:) is a numerical method used to integrate Newton's equations of motion. [1] It is frequently used to calculate trajectories of particles in molecular dynamics simulations and computer graphics.

  5. Flow distribution in manifolds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_distribution_in_manifolds

    [4] [5] [6] A generalized model of the flow distribution in channel networks of planar fuel cells. [6] Similar to Ohm's law, the pressure drop is assumed to be proportional to the flow rates. The relationship of pressure drop, flow rate and flow resistance is described as Q 2 = ∆P/R. f = 64/Re for laminar flow where Re is the Reynolds number.

  6. Fanno flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanno_flow

    Next, the flow follows the Fanno line until a shock changes the flow from supersonic to subsonic. The flow then follows the Fanno line again, almost reaching a choked condition before exiting the duct. Figure 5 Fanno and Rayleigh Line Intersection Chart. The Fanno flow model is often used in the design and analysis of nozzles.

  7. Goodman relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodman_relation

    Within the branch of materials science known as material failure theory, the Goodman relation (also called a Goodman diagram, a Goodman-Haigh diagram, a Haigh diagram or a Haigh-Soderberg diagram) is an equation used to quantify the interaction of mean and alternating stresses on the fatigue life of a material. [1]

  8. Load line (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_line_(electronics)

    The load line diagram at right is for a resistive load in a common emitter circuit. The load line shows how the collector load resistor (R L) constrains the circuit voltage and current. The diagram also plots the transistor's collector current I C versus collector voltage V CE for different values of base current I base.

  9. Drag equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_equation

    The drag force can also be specified as where P D is the pressure exerted by the fluid on area A.Here the pressure P D is referred to as dynamic pressure due to the kinetic energy of the fluid experiencing relative flow velocity u.
