So I was sitting around pondering about forces, and I found myself thinking about shock-waves. Whether they're caused by supersonic travel, or explosions, the pressure at the front of the wave-bow shock pressure is a force. So I started thinking of a way to generate them without having to go...

Hi, I have to make a project for school about the topic on the title. It must be a personal work, i mean i can't choose a difficult subject cause then all my presentation could be just a simple documentation. Also, the project could include just one or two of the topics in the title. I thought...

Hi guys, after hours of searching internet I couldn't find much real-life examples of second order nonlinear dynamic systems (only tons of tons of equation and system theory... got totally frustrated). They will serve as a base process for modeling controllers. So far I found propeller pendulum...

Hi PF! I'm using a finite differencing scheme to solve the following $$h_t = h h_{zz} + 2h_z^2$$ where the subscripts denote partial derivatives. The difficulty I'm facing is the boundary conditions are dynamic, and move with time ##t##. This makes choosing a ##\Delta z## very difficult and...

I'm fascinated by the prospect of them, but I can't seem to find much information/progress online aside from like small sensors which aren't quite the same thing. Has there been anything developed that is a self powered vibration generator? As in, it vibrates and then is powered by its own...

I am making a basic structural engineering software program for modelling cylindrical pipes. I want to model the effect of fluid inside the pipes. For static fluid I let the user input the internal pressure and density of the fluid in each element. For moving fluid I additionally want to let...

For example, in chemical plants, if a pressure gauge is on a pipe and it reads 5000 kPa, is this a static or total (static + dynamic) pressure reading? I am thinking it must be the total pressure. Would that mean that a pressure reading in this setting is both a measure of static pressure...

I understand that the dynamic modulus of a material is measured by inducing a sinusoidal force and measuring the strain response. Usually one gets a value for the storage and loss modulus. However, I don't understand how one would "quantify" how viscous a material is. I know a viscous material...

Just a quick question. Let A and B be two points. Electrical work is defined as the amount of energy it takes to move an amount of charge Q through a potential difference VB-VA (for our purposes here, we will assume that the voltage values are measured with respect to an Earth ground) and is...

I have the summation (from i=0 to n) of (F_{t})(R) / (1+d)^i where F_{t} = (F_{t-1})[(R)(I_{p}) +(1-R)(I_{r})] (The F_{t-1} is referring to the value of F in the last period) I want to find the value of R that maximizes the summation. So must I take the partial derivative wrt R? How do I...

There are two ways I'm used to allocate memory dynamically. int * array = malloc(10 * sizeof(int)); But this type of memory allocation, have a predefined size, which is not desirable. I keep hearing about linked list and push & pop. I've reviewed them over and over again, and they just...
