Dynamics/Tips For Editing

Introduction

This page gives some tips on how to go about adding content to a Wikiversity page.

Adding References

If you would like to add a reference to a book, such as Applied Dynamics by Rutgers Professor Haim Baruh, you can add a reference that appears as a superscript. If you look at the source, you will see a ref name, which makes it possible to cite the reference again like this. At the bottom of this page, you will also find this command {{Reflist}} under References.

Adding Equations

Here are examples of adding equations:

${𝗋}_P=X_P𝖨+Y_P𝖩+Z_P𝖪$

${𝗋}_P=X_P𝖨+Y_P𝖩+Z_P𝖪$

The angular velocity vector $\mathit{\omega }=({\omega }_x,{\omega }_y,{\omega }_z)$ defined above may be equivalently expressed as an angular velocity tensor, the matrix (or linear mapping) W = W(t) defined by:

$W=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0& -{\omega }_z& {\omega }_y\\ {\omega }_z& 0& -{\omega }_x\\ -{\omega }_y& {\omega }_x& 0\end{array}\right]$
