Cauchy momentum equation

mathematical expression

Available identifiers

vector partial differential equation describing non-relativistic momentum transport in a continuum, named after Augustin-Louis Cauchy

Also known as balance of linear momentum

Defining Formula: $\nabla \cdot σ + F = ρ \ddot{u}$
$σ$ represents stress tensor
$ρ$ represents mass density
$u$ represents displacement
$F$ represents body force
