1element — Synonyms and related words: acid, acidity, addend, adjunct, agent, air, alkali, alkalinity, alloisomer, americium, anion, antacid, antecedents, antilogarithm, appurtenance, argument, article, aspect, astatine, atmosphere, atom, atomic particles,… …
2Finite element method — The finite element method (FEM) (sometimes referred to as finite element analysis) is a numerical technique for finding approximate solutions of partial differential equations (PDE) as well as of integral equations. The solution approach is based …
3Formal derivative — In mathematics, the formal derivative is an operation on elements of a polynomial ring which mimics the form of the derivative from calculus. Though they appear similar, the algebraic advantage of a formal derivative is that it does not rely on… …
4Fréchet derivative — In mathematics, the Fréchet derivative is a derivative defined on Banach spaces. Named after Maurice Fréchet, it is commonly used to formalize the concept of the functional derivative used widely in mathematical analysis, especially functional… …
5Darboux derivative — The Darboux derivative of a map between a manifold and a Lie group is a variant of the standard derivative. In a certain sense, it is arguably a more natural generalization of the single variable derivative. It allows a generalization of the… …
6Exterior derivative — In differential geometry, the exterior derivative extends the concept of the differential of a function, which is a form of degree zero, to differential forms of higher degree. Its current form was invented by Élie Cartan.The exterior derivative… …
7Schwarzian derivative — In mathematics, the Schwarzian derivative is a certain operator that is invariant under all linear fractional transformations. Thus, it occurs in the theory of the complex projective line, and in particular, in the theory of modular forms and… …
8Malliavin derivative — In mathematics, the Malliavin derivative is a notion of derivative in the Malliavin calculus. Intuitively, it is the notion of derivative appropriate to paths in classical Wiener space, which are usually not differentiable in the usual… …
9Fox derivative — In mathematics, the Fox derivative is an algebraic construction in the theory of free groups which bears many similarities to the conventional derivative of calculus. The Fox derivative and related concepts are often referred to as the Fox… …
10Finite element method in structural mechanics — Finite element method (FEM) is a powerful technique originally developed for numerical solution of complex problems in structural mechanics, and it remains the method of choice for complex systems. In the FEM, the structural system is modeled by… …
