  2. Renormalization group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renormalization_group

    Regularization. v. t. e. In theoretical physics, the term renormalization group ( RG) refers to a formal apparatus that allows systematic investigation of the changes of a physical system as viewed at different scales. In particle physics, it reflects the changes in the underlying force laws (codified in a quantum field theory) as the energy ...

  3. Radius of gyration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radius_of_gyration

    Radius of gyration. Radius of gyration or gyradius of a body about the axis of rotation is defined as the radial distance to a point which would have a moment of inertia the same as the body's actual distribution of mass, if the total mass of the body were concentrated there. The dimension of Radius of Gyration is same as distance which is [L ...

    5. Robert Gilmour LeTourneau (November 30, 1888 – June 1, 1969), born in Richford, Vermont, was a prolific inventor of earthmoving machinery, and founder of LeTourneau Technologies, Inc [1] and LeTourneau University. His factories supplied machinery which represented nearly 70 percent of the earthmoving equipment and engineering vehicles used ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Röhm_Gesellschaft

    After 1968, RG Industries was established as a US division in Miami and operated until 1986. In 2010, the RG brand was acquired by Umarex GmbH & Co. KG. Röhm's RG-14 handgun, used in an assassination attempt on then US President Ronald Reagan , was referred to in 1981 as a Saturday night special , a cheaply manufactured firearm of perceived ...

  6. Functional renormalization group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_renormalization...

    Functional renormalization group. In theoretical physics, functional renormalization group ( FRG) is an implementation of the renormalization group (RG) concept which is used in quantum and statistical field theory, especially when dealing with strongly interacting systems. The method combines functional methods of quantum field theory with the ...

  7. Universality class - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universality_class

    Universality class. In statistical mechanics, a universality class is a collection of mathematical models which share a single scale-invariant limit under the process of renormalization group flow. While the models within a class may differ dramatically at finite scales, their behavior will become increasingly similar as the limit scale is ...

  8. Crack growth resistance curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crack_growth_resistance_curve

    In fracture mechanics, a crack growth resistance curve shows the energy required for crack extension as a function of crack length in a given material. For materials that can be modeled with linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM), crack extension occurs when the applied energy release rate exceeds the material's resistance to crack extension ...

  9. Auto mechanic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auto_mechanic

    An auto mechanic [1] is a mechanic who services and repairs automobiles, sometimes specializing in one or more automobile brands or sometimes working with any brand. In fixing cars, their main role is to diagnose and repair the problem accurately and quickly. Seasoned auto repair shops start with a (Digital) Inspection to determine the vehicle ...
