cnoidal wave
Materials science; Material physics
Periodic finite amplitude surface waves in shallow water whose shapes are given by the solution of the Korteweg-deVries equation.
Kármán vortex street
Materials science; Material physics
Periodic vortex wake behind a circular cylinder at moderate Reynolds numbers, 80 < Re < 200. The wake is characterized by regular vortical structures shed from opposite sides of ...
isoelectronic
Materials science; Material physics
Pertains to atoms that have the same number of electrons.
Dyson series
Materials science; Material physics
Perturbative expansion of any Green's function or correlation function in an interacting quantum field theory as a sum of time-ordered products. First developed by F.J. Dyson in ...
Fermi liquid theory
Materials science; Material physics
Phenomenological theory of a Fermi liquid, developed by L.D. Landau from 1956 to 1958, with the assumption that the low lying excited states of such a system can be understood in ...
hybridization
Materials science; Material physics
Phenomenon which occurs when atomic orbitals are combined to produce a molecular orbital of lower energy than the energy of the individual orbitals.
Moody chart
Materials science; Material physics
Plot of the Colebrook pipe friction formula for various surface roughnesses as a function of the Reynolds number for turbulent flow in a pipe.
