1 day ago · The infinitesimal strain theory is commonly adopted in civil and mechanical engineering for the stress analysis of structures built from relatively stiff elastic materials like concrete and steel, since a common goal in the design of such structures is to minimize their deformation under typical loads.
4 days ago · The primary use of Green's functions in mathematics is to solve non-homogeneous boundary value problems. In modern theoretical physics, Green's functions are also usually used as propagators in Feynman diagrams; the term Green's function is often further used for any correlation function .
4 days ago · conservation of energy, principle of physics according to which the energy of interacting bodies or particles in a closed system remains constant. The first kind of energy to be recognized was kinetic energy, or energy of motion. In certain particle collisions, called elastic, the sum of the kinetic energy of the particles before collision is ...

1 day ago · The Planck constant, or Planck's constant, denoted by , [1] is a fundamental physical constant [1] of foundational importance in quantum mechanics: a photon 's energy is equal to its frequency multiplied by the Planck constant, and the wavelength of a matter wave equals the Planck constant divided by the associated particle momentum.
23 hours ago · So far, scientists have thought of elastic turbulence as completely different from classical turbulence, but the Lab's publication in the journal Nature Communications might change this view.
4 days ago · Types of collision: Elastic collision: Collisions in which both momentum and kinetic energy of the system are conserved are called elastic collisions. The collision between subatomic particles is generally elastic. The collision between two steel or glass balls is nearly elastic.
