  2. Structural channel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_channel

    The structural channel is not used as much in construction as symmetrical beams, in part because its bending axis is not centered on the width of the flanges. If a load is applied equally across its top, the beam will tend to twist away from the web. This may not be a weak point or problem for a particular design, but is a factor to be ...

  3. Linear density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_density

    kilogram per meter (using SI base units) ounce (mass) per foot; ounce (mass) per inch; pound (mass) per yard: used in the North American railway industry for the linear density of rails; pound (mass) per foot; pound (mass) per inch; tex, a unit of measure for the linear density of fibers, defined as the mass in grams per 1,000 meters

  4. Specific weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_weight

    The specific weight, also known as the unit weight (symbol γ, the Greek letter gamma), is a volume-specific quantity defined as the weight W divided by the volume V of a material: = / Equivalently, it may also be formulated as the product of density, ρ, and gravity acceleration, g: = Its unit of measurement in the International System of Units (SI) is newton per cubic metre (N/m 3), with ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bending_of_plates

    In the Kirchhoff–Love plate theory for plates the governing equations are [1], = and , = In expanded form, + = ; + = and + + = where () is an applied transverse load per unit area, the thickness of the plate is =, the stresses are , and

  6. List of conversion factors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_conversion_factors

    The inductance of a closed circuit that produces one volt of electromotive force when the current in the circuit varies at a uniform rate of one ampere per second. [ 32 ] = 1 H = 1 Wb/A = 1 kg⋅m 2 /(A⋅s) 2

  7. Channel capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_capacity

    C is measured in bits per second if the logarithm is taken in base 2, or nats per second if the natural logarithm is used, assuming B is in hertz; the signal and noise powers S and N are expressed in a linear power unit (like watts or volts 2). Since S/N figures are often cited in dB, a conversion may be needed.

  8. Standard step method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Step_Method

    The HEC-RAS model calculated that the water backs up to a height of 9.21 meters at the upstream side of the sluice gate, which is the same as the manually calculated value. Normal depth was achieved at approximately 1,700 meters upstream of the gate. HEC-RAS modeled the hydraulic jump to occur 18 meters downstream of the sluice gate.
