Displacement (ship) — As weight is added to a ship, it submerges. Designated displacement is the ship s weight when fully loaded and submerged to her load lines. A ship s displacement is its weight[1] at any given time, generally expressed in metric tons or long tons … Wikipedia
Conjugate beam method — (0) real beam, (1) shear and moment, (2) conjugate beam, (3) slope and displacement The conjugate beam method is an engineering method to derive the slope and displacement of a beam. The conjugate beam method was developed by H. Müller Breslau in … Wikipedia
Direct integration of a beam — Direct integration is a structural analysis method for measuring internal shear, internal moment, rotation, and deflection of a beam. Positive directions for forces acting on an element. For a beam with an applied weight w(x), taking downward to… … Wikipedia
Timoshenko beam theory — The Timoshenko beam theory was developed by Ukrainian/Russian born scientist Stephen Timoshenko in the beginning of the 20th century. The model takes into account shear deformation and rotational inertia effects, making it suitable for describing … Wikipedia
Threshold displacement energy — The threshold displacement energy Td is the minimum kinetic energy that an atom in a solid needs to be permanently displaced from its lattice site to a defect position. It is also known as displacement threshold energy or just displacement energy … Wikipedia
Euler-Bernoulli beam equation — Euler Bernoulli beam theory, or just beam theory, is a simplification of the linear theory of elasticity which provides a means of calculating the load carrying and deflection characteristics of beams. It was first enunciated circa 1750, but was… … Wikipedia
Electron beam physical vapor deposition — or EBPVD is a form of physical vapor deposition in which a target anode is bombarded with an electron beam given off by a charged tungsten filament under high vacuum. The electron beam causes atoms from the target to transform into the gaseous… … Wikipedia

Capsize screening formula — The capsize screening formula (CSF) is a somewhat controversial figure. It is defined for sailboats as:CSF = Beam / (Displacement/64.2)1/3It came into being after the 1979 Fastnet race in England where a storm shredded the race fleet. The… … Wikipedia
