Description

A state that is a collection of sufficiently large number of other parts such that: - it is the bearer of qualities that can exists only by the fact that it is a sum of parts - the smallest partition dV of the state volume in which we are interested in, contains enough parts to be statistically consistent: n [#/m3] x dV [m3] >> 1

  • A continuum is made of a sufficient number of parts that it continues to exists as continuum individual even after the loss of one of them i.e. a continuum is a redundant. [en]
  • A continuum is not necessarily small (i.e. composed by the minimum amount of sates to fulfill the definition).
  • A single continuum individual can be the whole fluid in a pipe. [en]

    • A continuum is the bearer of properties that are generated by the interactions of parts such as viscosity and thermal or electrical conductivity. [en]
