Rotation in three dimensions

Euler's equations (rigid body dynamics)

In classical mechanics, Euler's rotation equations are a vectorial quasilinear first-order ordinary differential equation describing the rotation of a rigid body, using a rotating reference frame with angular velocity ω whose axes are fixed to the body. Their general vector form is where M is the applied torques and I is the inertia matrix.The vector is the angular acceleration. In orthogonal principal axes of inertia coordinates the equations become where Mk are the components of the applied torques, Ik are the principal moments of inertia and ωk are the components of the angular velocity.

Pressure of an incompressible Euler flow with a circular obstacle

This is a first attempt at representing the pressure of a solution of the incompressible Euler equations, representing a fluid flowing around a circular obstacle. As pointed out in a comment to a previous video on the Euler equations, one can express the Laplacian of the pressure in terms

Derivation of Euler-Lagrange Equations | Classical Mechanics

The Euler-Lagrange equations describe how a physical system will evolve over time if you know about the Lagrange function. We assume that out of all the different paths a particle can take, it will be the one, where small deviations from the path won’t change the action too much. This is u

Understanding the Euler Lagrange Equation

To understand classical mechanics it is important to grasp the concept of minimum action. This is well described with the basics of calculus of variations. In this lecture I explain how to derive the Euler Lagrange equation, which we will use later to solve problems in mechanics related

A shear flow

In a shear flow, several layers of fluid move at different speeds, causing vortices (or eddies) to form where the layers touch each other. This simulation starts with horizontal layers, whose velocity has a small dependence on the x-coordinate. Colors depend on the vorticity of the velocit
