Vorticity — is a mathematical concept used in fluid dynamics. It can be related to the amount of circulation or rotation (or more strictly, the local angular rate of rotation) in a fluid.Clancy, L.J., Aerodynamics , Section 7.11] The average vorticity zeta… … Wikipedia
Conservative vector field — In vector calculus a conservative vector field is a vector field which is the gradient of a function, known in this context as a scalar potential. Conservative vector fields have the property that the line integral from one point to another is… … Wikipedia
Barotropic vorticity equation — A simplified form of the vorticity equation for an inviscid, divergence free flow, the barotropic vorticity equation can simply be stated as:frac{D eta}{D t} = 0,where frac{D}{D t} is the material derivative and:eta = zeta + fis absolute… … Wikipedia
Solenoidal vector field — In vector calculus a solenoidal vector field (also known as an incompressible vector field) is a vector field v with divergence zero at all points in the field; The fundamental theorem of vector calculus states that any vector field can be… … Wikipedia
Pseudovector — In physics and mathematics, a pseudovector (or axial vector) is a quantity that transforms like a vector under a proper rotation, but gains an additional sign flip under an improper rotation (a transformation that can be expressed as an inversion … Wikipedia

Congruence (general relativity) — In general relativity, a congruence (more properly, a congruence of curves) is the set of integral curves of a (nowhere vanishing) vector field in a four dimensional Lorentzian manifold which is interpreted physically as a model of spacetime.… … Wikipedia
Raychaudhuri equation — In general relativity, Raychaudhuri s equation is a fundamental result describing the motion of nearby bits of matter.The equation is important as a fundamental lemma for the Penrose Hawking singularity theorems and for the study of exact… … Wikipedia
Biot–Savart law — The Biot–Savart Law is an equation in electromagnetism that describes the magnetic field B generated by an electric current. The vector field B depends on the magnitude, direction, length, and proximity of the electric current, and also on a… … Wikipedia
Rindler coordinates — In relativistic physics, the Rindler coordinate chart is an important and useful coordinate chart representing part of flat spacetime, also called the Minkowski vacuum. The Rindler chart was introduced by Wolfgang Rindler. The Rindler coordinate… … Wikipedia
