Different discretizations of the gradient and curl operators are considered for a staggered grid in a height-based terrain-following coordinate system. A combination of discrete operators is identified that guarantees the mimetic property that the curl of the gradient of any scalar vanishes identically....
In summary, the conversation discusses the topic of whether the field of an electric dipole is conservative. The speaker initially thought it would be, but after researching vector calculus, they discovered that the curl of the gradient of a function is equal to zero. This leads to a ...
This paper establishes important properties of the gradient, divergence, curl and Stokes operators in ℝ 3 . They are set in the weighted Sobolev spaces of Hanouzet with finite integer weights ranging from -∞ to +∞. Among the results that we prove are isomorphism properties of the gradient...

In summary, the participants discuss the definition of curl and whether it can be derived from the gradient operator. Some argue that the Wikipedia definition is not enough and that a proof is needed. Others mention the use of the del operator and how it is related to curl. Eventually, ...
1. Gradient If the del operator, , operates on a scalar function, f(x,y,z), we get the gradient: ,f = (,f/,x) x + (,f/,y) y + (,f/,z) z . We can interpret this gradient as a vector with the magnitude and direction of the maximum change of the function in space. ...

The curl of a vector field is a measure of how much the vector field swirls. Mathematically, the curl of a vector field is the cross product of the gradient and a vector. How do you find the curl of a vector? To find the curl of a vector field, set up a 3x3 matrix where the ...
When the force has rotational symmetry, for example when generated by an isolated optical vortex, particles spiral outwards and escape, even with an attractive gradient force, however strong. Without rotational symmetry, and for dynamics in the plane, the state space is four-dimensional, and to ...
