momentum-transfer method
1Momentum exchange tether — Momentum Exchange Tethers is one of many applications for space tethers. This sub set represents an entire area of research using a spinning conductive and/or non conductive tether to throw spacecraft up or down in orbit (like a sling), thereby… …
2Heat transfer — is a discipline of thermal engineering that concerns the exchange of thermal energy from one physical system to another. Heat transfer is classified into various mechanisms, such as heat conduction, convection, thermal radiation, and phase change …
3Mass transfer — Part of Chemical engineering History Concepts Unit operations Unit processes Chemical engineer Chemical process Process integration Unit operation …
4Multiphase particle-in-cell method — The multiphase particle in cell method (MP PIC) is a numerical method for modeling particle fluid and particle particle interactions in a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) calculation. The MP PIC method achieves greater stability than its… …
5Moving particle semi-implicit method — The moving particle semi implicit (MPS) method is a computational method for the simulation of incompressible free surface flows. It is a macroscopic, deterministic particle method (Lagrangian meshfree method) developed by Koshizuka and Oka… …
6Spin Transfer Switching — is a new technique that is currently being researched as a method of writing in MRAMs. By using this technique it is believed that the current needed to switch an MRAM cell will be greatly reduced. This in turn will lead to higher density… …
7radiation — radiational, adj. /ray dee ay sheuhn/, n. 1. Physics. a. the process in which energy is emitted as particles or waves. b. the complete process in which energy is emitted by one body, transmitted through an intervening medium or space, and… …
8Electron — For other uses, see Electron (disambiguation). Electron Experiments with a Crookes tube first demonstrated the particle nature of electrons. In this illustration, the profile of the cross shaped target is projected against the tube face at right… …
9Formation and evolution of the Solar System — Artist s conception of a protoplanetary disk The formation and evolution of the Solar System is estimated to have begun 4.568 billion years ago with the gravitational collapse of a small part of a giant molecular cloud …
10Transport phenomena — In physics, chemistry, biology and engineering, a transport phenomenon is any of various mechanisms by which particles or quantities move from one place to another. The laws which govern transport connect a flux with a motive force . Three common …
