  2. Series and parallel springs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Series_and_parallel_springs

    The following table gives formula for the spring that is equivalent to a system of two springs, in series or in parallel, whose spring constants are and . [1] The compliance c {\displaystyle c} of a spring is the reciprocal 1 / k {\displaystyle 1/k} of its spring constant.)

  3. Mass-spring-damper model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass-spring-damper_model

    The mass-spring-damper model consists of discrete mass nodes distributed throughout an object and interconnected via a network of springs and dampers. This model is well-suited for modelling object with complex material properties such as nonlinearity and viscoelasticity. Packages such as MATLAB may be used to run simulations of such models. [1]

  4. Maxwell material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell_material

    Diagram of a Maxwell material. The Maxwell model is represented by a purely viscous damper and a purely elastic spring connected in series, [4] as shown in the diagram. If, instead, we connect these two elements in parallel, [4] we get the generalized model of a solid Kelvin–Voigt material.

  5. Standard linear solid model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Linear_Solid_model

    The first, referred to as the Maxwell arm, contains a spring (=) and dashpot (viscosity ) in series. [2] The other system contains only a spring ( E = E 1 {\displaystyle E=E_{1}} ). These relationships help relate the various stresses and strains in the overall system and the Maxwell arm:

  6. Hooke's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hooke's_law

    In physics, Hooke's law is an empirical law which states that the force (F) needed to extend or compress a spring by some distance (x) scales linearly with respect to that distance—that is, F s = kx, where k is a constant factor characteristic of the spring (i.e., its stiffness), and x is small compared to the total possible deformation of the spring.

  7. Spring system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_system

    A spring system can be thought of as the simplest case of the finite element method for solving problems in statics. Assuming linear springs and small deformation (or restricting to one-dimensional motion) a spring system can be cast as a (possibly overdetermined) system of linear equations or equivalently as an energy minimization problem.

  8. Lever rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lever_rule

    In chemistry, the lever rule is a formula used to determine the mole fraction (x i) or the mass fraction (w i) of each phase of a binary equilibrium phase diagram. It can be used to determine the fraction of liquid and solid phases for a given binary composition and temperature that is between the liquidus and solidus line. [1]

  9. Fanno flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanno_flow

    The initial conditions exist at point 1. Point 2 exists at the nozzle throat, where M = 1. Point 3 labels the transition from isentropic to Fanno flow. Points 4 and 5 give the pre- and post-shock wave conditions, and point E is the exit from the duct. Figure 4 The H-S diagram is depicted for the conditions of Figure 3. Entropy is constant for ...
