An integral of motion which restricts the phase space available to a dynamical system.

Two unit-speed plane curves which have the same curvature differ only by a Euclidean motion.

A double rhomboid linkage which gives rectilinear motion from circular without an inversion.

The motion along a phase curve as a function of time (Tabor 1989, p. 14).

A linkage which converts circular to linear motion using a hinged square.

The angular velocity omega is the time derivative of the angular distance theta with direction z^^ perpendicular to the plane of angular motion, omega=(dtheta)/(dt)z^^=(v)/r.

A property of motion which is conserved to exponential accuracy in the small parameter representing the typical rate of change of the gross properties of the body.

The Wiener sausage of radius a>0 is the random process defined by W^a(t)= union _(0<=s<=t)B_a(beta(s)) where here, beta(t) is the standard Brownian motion in R^d for t>=0 and ...

A transformation from one reference frame to another moving with a constant velocity v with respect to the first for classical motion. However, special relativity shows that ...

If two single-valued continuous functions kappa(s) (curvature) and tau(s) (torsion) are given for s>0, then there exists exactly one space curve, determined except for ...
