  2. Convergent evolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergent_evolution

    v. t. e. Convergent evolution is the independent evolution of similar features in species of different periods or epochs in time. Convergent evolution creates analogous structures that have similar form or function but were not present in the last common ancestor of those groups. The cladistic term for the same phenomenon is homoplasy.

  3. Propelling nozzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propelling_nozzle

    Propelling nozzle. A propelling nozzle is a nozzle that converts the internal energy of a working gas into propulsive force; it is the nozzle, which forms a jet, that separates a gas turbine, or gas generator, from a jet engine. Propelling nozzles accelerate the available gas to subsonic, transonic, or supersonic velocities depending on the ...

  4. de Laval nozzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Laval_nozzle

    A de Laval nozzle (or convergent-divergent nozzle, CD nozzle or con-di nozzle) is a tube which is pinched in the middle, making a carefully balanced, asymmetric hourglass shape. It is used to accelerate a compressible fluid to supersonic speeds in the axial (thrust) direction, by converting the thermal energy of the flow into kinetic energy.

  5. Isentropic nozzle flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isentropic_Nozzle_Flow

    Isentropic is the combination of the Greek word "iso" (which means - same) and entropy. When the change in flow variables is small and gradual, isentropic flows occur. The generation of sound waves is an isentropic process. A supersonic flow that is turned while there is an increase in flow area is also isentropic.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madelung_constant

    The Madelung constant allows for the calculation of the electric potential Vi of the ion at position ri due to all other ions of the lattice. where is the distance between the i th and the j th ion. In addition, 4πε0 = 1.112 × 10−10 C2/ (J⋅m); ε0 is the permittivity of free space.

  8. Orogeny - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orogeny

    Orogeny (/ ɒˈrɒdʒəni /) is a mountain - building process that takes place at a convergent plate margin when plate motion compresses the margin. An orogenic belt or orogen develops as the compressed plate crumples and is uplifted to form one or more mountain ranges.

  9. Energy transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_transformation

    Energy transformation. Energy transformation, also known as energy conversion, is the process of changing energy from one form to another. [1] In physics, energy is a quantity that provides the capacity to perform work or moving (e.g. lifting an object) or provides heat. In addition to being converted, according to the law of conservation of ...
