- Continuous function One that is everywhere differentiable. Also in Wikipedia.
- Deviatoric stress: difference between the full stress and the spherical stress in a volume.
- Stencil: node arrangement used to pass information through a numerical solution to a differential equation.
- Taylor Series: representation of a continuous function as the sum of an infinite series of terms. The terms are derivatives of the function at a point.
- Some math(s):
- This paper was/is fantastic: [1]
- No, really it is [1]
