    A Solving for a steady-state (passive cable equation)

    When trying to model a neuronal dendrite or axon, the cylindrical shape is preferred and cable core conductor theory is applied. Considering only passive current, that is, non-voltage-dependent current, such as leakage potassium current, the general form of the cable equation is ∂²V_m/∂X² =...

    Water flowing out of a rotating vessel

    Let's say at the steady state the vertex of the parabola (paraboloid) is at the origin . Then the eqn of the formed parabola would be $$y=\frac{\omega^2x^2}{2g}$$ Now , initial volume of liquid is ##\pi R^2h## . As the liquid flows out of the orifice , the surface would maintain it's structure...

    A Steady state confined flow field: Is it cyclic?

    For a fluid that is confined to a finite region with no sources and sinks, are the only options for the flow field a) static, and b) cyclic? The example I have in mind is Rayleigh convection in a shallow dish heated from below, where convection cells are formed beyond a certain temperature...

    Solving Equation to Analyze Steady State Current

    I set up the equation ##V-iR-L\frac{di}{dt}=0##, with ##i(0)## and by solving it I got ##i(t)=\frac{V}{R}(1-e^{-\frac{R}{L}t})##. Then, since the steady state current is ##i_s=\frac{V}{R}## I imposed the condition ##i(t_1)=\frac{9}{10}\frac{V}{R}\Leftrightarrow...

    Driven oscillator amplitude steady state X(t) = ##Asin(\omega t + \delta)##

    I Can someone explain Quasi-steady-state cosmology to me?

    I know it says Universe is eternal, how does that work with gravity? If all the stars and galaxies had infinite time to attract each other why are they still apart? I guess this is a naïve question because no one talks about it but I can't figure it out. Thank you for answers!
