(physics) Early classical mechanics as propounded by Isaac Newton, especially that based on his laws of motion and theory of gravity.

(physics) All of the physical laws of nature that account for the behaviour of the normal world, but break down when dealing with the very small (see quantum mechanics) or the very fast or very heavy (see relativity).

(physics) The branch of physics that uses statistical laws to make theoretical predictions about macroscopic systems of particles.

(geology) a mechanical analogue of the seismic lithosphere, used to simulate the flexural deformations of the Earth

(mechanics) A mechanism that translates a continuous rotation into an intermittent rotary motion, using an intermittent gear where the drive wheel has a pin that reaches into a slot of the driven wheel and thereby advances it by one step, and having a raised circular blocking disc that locks the driven wheel in position between steps.

plural of Geneva mechanism

(physics) The sum of the potential energy and kinetic energy of a body or system

The branch of mechanics dealing with the effects of stress and strain on physical bodies over time.

(medicine) A form of physiotherapy used to correct body posture and movement.

(physics) The branch of fluid mechanics that deals with the action of forces on gases.
