| 1. | Where is time, and each overdot denotes one time derivative.
|
| 2. | (each dot over a quantity indicates one time derivative ).
|
| 3. | The time derivative of the displacement vector is the velocity vector.
|
| 4. | Classical mechanics retains Newton's dot notation for time derivatives.
|
| 5. | The time derivative of an integral over a volume is defined as
|
| 6. | Traditionally, algebraic formulae determine time derivatives of the coarse model.
|
| 7. | It should not be confused with the time derivative of the entropy.
|
| 8. | The partial time derivatives suggest using two of Maxwell's Equations.
|
| 9. | The steady state response is with all time derivatives set to zero.
|
| 10. | So, the formulation in terms of time derivatives is more elegant.
