  2. Damping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damping

    For a step input, the percentage overshoot (PO) is the maximum value minus the step value divided by the step value. In the case of the unit step, the overshoot is just the maximum value of the step response minus one. The percentage overshoot (PO) is related to damping ratio (ζ) by:

  3. Damp (structural) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damp_(structural)

    Removing water with good drainage will remove any form of dampness. Once done, and dampness remains, the next step is to look for the presence of a damp-proof course. [14] If a damp-proof course is present, it is likely to be functioning, as the materials from which damp proof courses are manufactured tend to have a long lifespan.

  4. Calculation of buoyancy flows and flows inside buildings

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calculation_of_buoyancy...

    The momentum equation in the direction of gravity should be modeled for buoyant forces resulting from buoyancy. [1] Hence the momentum equation is given by ∂ρv/∂t + V.∇(ρv)= -g((ρ-ρ°) - ∇P+μ∇ 2 v + S v. In the above equation -g((ρ-ρ°) is the buoyancy term, where ρ° is the reference density.

  6. RLC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RLC_circuit

    Friction will slowly bring any oscillation to a halt if there is no external force driving it. Likewise, the resistance in an RLC circuit will "damp" the oscillation, diminishing it with time if there is no driving AC power source in the circuit. The resonant frequency is defined as the frequency at which the impedance of the circuit is at a ...

  7. Darcy's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy's_law

    Darcy's law is an equation that describes the flow of a fluid flow trough a porous medium and through a Hele-Shaw cell.The law was formulated by Henry Darcy based on results of experiments [1] on the flow of water through beds of sand, forming the basis of hydrogeology, a branch of earth sciences.

  8. 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).

  9. Duffing equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duffing_equation

    is the amplitude of the periodic driving force; if = the system is without a driving force, and ω {\displaystyle \omega } is the angular frequency of the periodic driving force. The Duffing equation can be seen as describing the oscillations of a mass attached to a nonlinear spring and a linear damper.
