  2. Force-directed graph drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force-directed_graph_drawing

    Force-directed graph drawing algorithms assign forces among the set of edges and the set of nodes of a graph drawing.Typically, spring-like attractive forces based on Hooke's law are used to attract pairs of endpoints of the graph's edges towards each other, while simultaneously repulsive forces like those of electrically charged particles based on Coulomb's law are used to separate all pairs ...

  3. Free body diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_body_diagram

    In physics and engineering, a free body diagram (FBD; also called a force diagram) [1] is a graphical illustration used to visualize the applied forces, moments, and resulting reactions on a free body in a given condition. It depicts a body or connected bodies with all the applied forces and moments, and reactions, which act on the body(ies).

  5. Unit dummy force method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_dummy_force_method

    The Unit dummy force method provides a convenient means for computing displacements in structural systems. It is applicable for both linear and non-linear material behaviours as well as for systems subject to environmental effects, and hence more general than Castigliano's second theorem .

  6. Displacement field (mechanics) - Wikipedia

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

    A displacement field is a vector field of all displacement vectors for all particles in the body, which relates the deformed configuration with the undeformed configuration. The distance between any two particles changes if and only if deformation has occurred. If displacement occurs without deformation, then it is a rigid-body displacement.

  7. Direct stiffness method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_stiffness_method

    Once the global stiffness matrix, displacement vector, and force vector have been constructed, the system can be expressed as a single matrix equation. For each degree of freedom in the structure, either the displacement or the force is known.

  8. Force field (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    Plot of a two-dimensional slice of the gravitational potential in and around a uniform spherical body. The inflection points of the cross-section are at the surface of the body. In physics , a force field is a vector field corresponding with a non-contact force acting on a particle at various positions in space .

  9. Generalized forces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_forces

    In the application of the principle of virtual work it is often convenient to obtain virtual displacements from the velocities of the system. For the n particle system, let the velocity of each particle P i be V i, then the virtual displacement δr i can also be written in the form [2] = = ˙, =, …,.
