Difference between N-body problem and Periodic boundary conditions

N-body problem vs. Periodic boundary conditions

In physics, the -body problem is the problem of predicting the individual motions of a group of celestial objects interacting with each other gravitationally. Periodic boundary conditions (PBCs) are a set of boundary conditions which are often chosen for approximating a large (infinite) system by using a small part called a unit cell.

Similarities between N-body problem and Periodic boundary conditions

N-body problem and Periodic boundary conditions have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Angular momentum, Ellipse, Ewald summation, Mass, Topology.

Angular momentum

In physics, angular momentum (rarely, moment of momentum or rotational momentum) is the rotational equivalent of linear momentum.

Ellipse

In mathematics, an ellipse is a curve in a plane surrounding two focal points such that the sum of the distances to the two focal points is constant for every point on the curve.

Ewald summation

Ewald summation, named after Paul Peter Ewald, is a method for computing long-range interactions (e.g., electrostatic interactions) in periodic systems.

Mass

Mass is both a property of a physical body and a measure of its resistance to acceleration (a change in its state of motion) when a net force is applied.

Topology

In mathematics, topology (from the Greek τόπος, place, and λόγος, study) is concerned with the properties of space that are preserved under continuous deformations, such as stretching, crumpling and bending, but not tearing or gluing.

N-body problem and Periodic boundary conditions Comparison

N-body problem has 140 relations, while Periodic boundary conditions has 46. As they have in common 5, the Jaccard index is 2.69% = 5 / (140 + 46).
