Symbols

Nomenclature consistency is fundamental in scientific texts. Using the same symbols to represent mathematical variables in a consistent way throughout the entire text facilitates its comprehension. Therefore, for the sake of consistency, the following lines enumerate the symbols that will be used in this text.

Note that new symbols will be added as contents are developed. Readers are encouraged to let the author know in case they found any inconsistency.

 

Nomenclature

Magnitude Symbol Units (S.I.)
Density $\rho$ $\frac{kg}{m^3}$
Mass $m$ $kg$
Shear velocity $u_\tau$ $\frac{m}{s}$
Velocity $U$ $\frac{m}{s}$
