Derivation of the Navier–Stokes equations equation), three important concepts may be concisely written: conservation of mass, conservation of momentum, and conservation of energy. Validity is retained if formula_5 is a vector, in which case the vector-vector product in the second term will be a dyad. A general momentum equation is obtained when the conservation relation is applied to momentum. If the intensive property formula_5; considered is the mass flux (also "momentum density"), i.e. the product of mass density and flow velocity formula_17, by substitution in the general continuum equation: where formula_19 is a dyad, a special case of tensor product, which results in a second
Rigid body dynamics the rigid body. The velocity of the points R along their trajectories are where ω is the angular velocity vector of the body. Work is computed from the dot product of each force with the displacement of its point of contact If the trajectory of a rigid body is defined by a set of generalized coordinates "q", "j" = 1, ..., "m", then the virtual displacements δr are given by The virtual work of this system of forces acting on the body in terms of the generalized coordinates becomes or collecting the coefficients of δq For simplicity consider a trajectory
