Euler equations Definition and 34 Threads

I'm trying to linearize (first order) the Euler's equation for a small perturbation ##\delta## Starting with ##mna (\frac{\partial}{\partial t} + \frac{\vec{v}}{a} \cdot \nabla ) \vec{u} = - \nabla P - mn \nabla \phi## (1) ##\vec{u} = aH\vec{x(t)} + \vec{v(x,t)}## Where a is the scale factor...

Hi The rotating bucket problem with a fluid is well known as a homework. For the fun i wanted to adapt it to the case of a massive non-rotating sphere surrounded by a fluid. However i don't know if the calculations i made are correct or don't make sense at all (even if the result lead to an...

Our thesis can be restated as follows: \exists C_\alpha\in\mathbb R_+ s.t. \forall w\in\mathbb R^2_+ \begin{align*} \lVert u(t,w)-u(t,w')\rVert^2 \leq C_\alpha^2\lVert w-w'\rVert^{2\alpha} \end{align*} where w=(y,z) and \alpha=\beta\gamma. We get an upper bound for each (squared) component of...

Hello. Could anyone help me with some insight in an extra term appearing in the motion equations of a relativistic fluid? I say extra term, because it's not present on the motion for a test particle, as it follows: Let's propose Minkowski space-time, the motion equations for a fluid with zero...

Hello I am studying mechanics and I have been reading about having the reference frame fixed at a certain point, body fixed and also the gyro equations. I an identify the gyro case easily as I am looking for an AAC body which rotates about an axis. I am confused about the other two cases in...

Hello, I know it might sound silly but sometimes I get confused. Let's say I have a gyro-compass and I get 3 equations of torque for the 3 axes. I am expected to find the equation of motion and two of them are equated with 0. These are the Euler's dynamics equation with moving reference frame...

I know that ##\vec{v_c}=(\omega_1;-\omega_2;0)×(L;-r;0)=0## So ##\omega_2=\frac{r\omega_1}{L}## Then, using the system of coordinates shown in the picture and ##\Sigma M_z## I can find the reaction force in ##C##. But how can I find the reaction forces on ##A## and ##O##? I mean, what system...

Hi everyone, I am confused when I apply Euler's equation on the free expansion of an ideal gas. Consider a free expansion (expansion of gas in vaccum) where the volume is doubled (V->2V) The classical free expansion of an ideal gas results in increase in entropy by an amount of nR ln(2), a...

α is the second derivative of angle and w is the first derivative In the free body diagrams the only force on A is the normal force since it is only constrained not to move vertically. Have I drawn the free body diagram and kinetic diagram correctly? By relating the accelerations of the...

I am using from the following Euler equations : $$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial u^{i}}-\dfrac{\text{d}}{\text{d}s}\bigg(\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial u'^{i}}\bigg) =0$$ with function ##f## is equal to : $$f=g_{ij}\dfrac{\text{d}u^{i}}{\text{d}s}\dfrac{\text{d}u^{j}}{\text{d}s}$$ and we have...

Hello all. After reading both chapters on rigid body motion both in Kleppner - Kolenkow and Taylor books, I still do not undertand the physical meaning of Euler equations. Let me explain: In Kleppner - Kolenkow, they claim (page 321 - 322) that in Euler equations, Γ1, Γ2 and Γ3 are the...

"A rigid lamina (i.e. a two dimensional object) has principal moments of inertia about the centre of mass given by ##I_1=u^2-1##, ##I_2=u^2+1##, ##I_3=2u^2## Choose the initial angular velocity to be ##ω = µN \hat{e_1} + N \hat{e_2}##. Define tan α = ω2/ω1, which is the angle the component of ω...

Hi. Since these equations are approaching three hundred years old I'm pretty sure someone must have solved them somewhere before. However I have not been able to find any text-books or papers that actually show me how to solve these equations. So I'm wondering if anyone here know where I can...

Every textbook i find breezes over the following point: \delta\partial (x) =\partial \delta (x) where delta is just the variation. Someone asked me why that's true and i guessed the only thing i could say was that delta is an operation not a variable so this is more like an algebraric...

Is it possible for an Euler equation to satisfy the boundary conditions Y(1)=0, Y(2)=0? I have considered the three possibilities, distinct real roots, repeated roots and conjugate complex roots and cannot find any solutions. Are there any other possibilities to consider? Thanks
