31Potential flow — streamlines around a NACA 0012 airfoil at 11° angle of attack, with upper and lower streamtubes identified. In fluid dynamics, potential flow describes the velocity field as the gradient of a scalar function: the velocity potential. As a result,… …
32Aerospace engineering — Aerospace Engineer NASA engineers, the ones depicted in the film Apollo 13, worked diligently to protect the lives of the astronauts on the mission. Occupation Names engineer aerospace engineer …
33Overflow (software) — This image depicts the flowfield around the Space Shuttle Launch Vehicle traveling at Mach 2.46 and at an altitude of 66,000 feet (20,000 m). The surface of the vehicle is colored by the pressure coefficient, and the gray contours represent the… …
34List of engineering science and mechanics topics — This page aims to list all articles related to the specific discipline of Engineering Science and Mechanics (ESM). For a broad overview of engineering, please see Engineering. For biographies please see List of engineers and… …
35Fluid-structure interaction — (FSI) occurs when a fluid interacts with a solid structure, exerting pressure on it which may cause deformation in the structure and thus alter the flow of the fluid itself. Such interactions may be stable or oscillatory, and are a crucial… …
36Lattice Boltzmann methods — (LBM) is a class of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods for fluid simulation. Instead of solving the Navier–Stokes equations, the discrete Boltzmann equation is solved to simulate the flow of a Newtonian fluid with collision models such as …
37Movable cellular automaton — method Movable cellular automaton actively changed self neighbors by means switching neighbors state from linked to unlinked and vice versa (modeling of contact interaction) Method type Continuous/Discrete Discrete …
38Vorticity — is a mathematical concept used in fluid dynamics. It can be related to the amount of circulation or rotation (or more strictly, the local angular rate of rotation) in a fluid.Clancy, L.J., Aerodynamics , Section 7.11] The average vorticity zeta… …
39Cyclonic separation — A simple cyclone separator Cyclonic separation is a method of removing particulates from an air, gas or liquid stream, without the use of filters, through vortex separation. Rotational effects and gravity are used to separate mixtures of solids… …
