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
Body mass index developed. formula_3 Within some medical contexts, such as familial amyloid polyneuropathy, serum albumin is factored in to produce a modified body mass index (mBMI). The mBMI can be obtained by multiplying the BMI by serum albumin, in grams per litre. Body mass index The body mass index (BMI) or Quetelet index is a value derived from the mass (weight) and height of an individual. The BMI is defined as the body mass divided by the square of the body height, and is universally expressed in units of kg/m, resulting from mass in kilograms and height in metres. The BMI may
