    Fluid mechanics question--slip boundary condition for gas?

    In solving the Navier Stokes equation, the typical boundary condition imposed on the tangential velocity at a solid surface is that of no-slip. However, it is known that for gaseous flow there always exists a non-zero velocity near the wall, especially at relatively big Knudsen number. Is there...

    Derivation of waveguide condition for two light rays

    How did they derive equation (6)? I don't like how they say -Φm instead of Φm, but that aside, I get that both rays 1A and 2A' travel the same distance, but AC incurs a phase change due to total internal reflection (-Φm) and it travels AC from there. Meanwhile, A'C is the distance the other...

    Conditional probability with joint condition

    So say I have Pr(Z|X&Y) I'm guessing that it follows the standard Pr(A|B)=[Pr(B|A)Pr(A)]/Pr(B) So Pr(Z|X&Y)=[Pr(X&Y|Z)Pr(Z)]/Pr(X&Y)?Also, if X&Y are independent, then would I get Pr(X&Y|Z)=Pr(X|Z)Pr(Y|Z)?
