First-order partial differential equationIn mathematics, a first-order partial differential equation is a partial differential equation that involves only first derivatives of the unknown function of n variables. The equation takes the form Such equations arise in the construction of characteristic surfaces for hyperbolic partial differential equations, in the calculus of variations, in some geometrical problems, and in simple models for gas dynamics whose solution involves the method of characteristics.
HemorheologyHemorheology, also spelled haemorheology (from Greek ‘αἷμα, haima 'blood' and rheology, from Greek ῥέω rhéō, 'flow' and -λoγία, -logia 'study of'), or blood rheology, is the study of flow properties of blood and its elements of plasma and cells. Proper tissue perfusion can occur only when blood's rheological properties are within certain levels. Alterations of these properties play significant roles in disease processes. Blood viscosity is determined by plasma viscosity, hematocrit (volume fraction of red blood cell, which constitute 99.
Tenseur des contraintes de MaxwellLe tenseur des contraintes de Maxwell (nommé en l'honneur de James Clerk Maxwell) est un tenseur de rang 2 utilisé en électromagnétisme classique pour exprimer dans le cas général les forces électromagnétiques. Dans la situation physique la plus simple, constituée d'une charge ponctuelle se déplaçant librement dans un champ magnétique uniforme, on peut calculer aisément la force exercée sur la particule en utilisant la loi de la force de Lorentz.
