The ratio of the flow speed to the speed of sound was named the Mach number after Ernst Mach, who was one of the first to investigate the properties of supersonic flow which included Schlieren photography techniques to visualize the changes in density.

A contrasting position was taken by Ernst Mach, who contended that all motion was relative.

Hayek's time in Monakow's lab, and his deep interest in the work of Ernst Mach, inspired Hayek's first intellectual project, eventually published as The Sensory Order ( 1952 ).

The main influences on the early logical positivists were the positivist Ernst Mach, Gottlob Frege, Bertrand Russell and the young Ludwig Wittgenstein.

Influential in the early days of Modernism were the theories of Sigmund Freud ( 1856 – 1939 ), and Ernst Mach ( 1838 – 1916 ).

As a philosopher of science Ernst Mach was a major influence on logical positivism, and through his criticism of Isaac Newton, a forerunner of Einstein's theory of relativity.

The Mach number is named after Austrian physicist and philosopher Ernst Mach, a designation proposed by aeronautical engineer Jakob Ackeret.

Some examples of this are Baruch Spinoza, David Hume, Ernst Mach, Richard Avenarius, and Joseph Petzoldt.

One of the major innovations made by the Salon Cubists, independently of Picasso and Braque, was that of simultaneity, drawing to greater or lesser extent on theories of Henri Poincaré, Ernst Mach, Charles Henry, and Henri Bergson.

The highpoint of the German University was the era preceding the First World War, when it was home to world-renowned scientists such as physicist and philosopher Ernst Mach, Moritz Winternitz, Albert Einstein.

Mach argued, beginning in the 1880s with The Science of Mechanics ( 1883 ), that the mind had a fundamental structure, and that subjective experience was based on the interplay of parts of the mind.

The writing in which Einstein found inspiration from Mach was " The Science of Mechanics ", where the philosopher criticized Newton's idea of absolute space, in particular the argument that Newton gave sustaining the existence of an advantaged reference system: what is commonly called " Newton's bucket argument ".

Created in 1945, Matra ( Mechanics / Aviation / Traction ) was the company behind several technological projects: creating a twin-engine airplane prototype able to travel at 800 km / h, breaking the sound barrier at Mach 1. 4 in vertical flight for the first time in Europe.

Mach received a major boost in visibility when the Open Software Foundation ( OSF ) announced they would be hosting future versions of OSF / 1 on Mach 2. 5, and were investigating Mach 3 as well.

At the base of Workplace OS was a version of the Mach 3. 0 microkernel ( release mk68 ) developed by Carnegie Mellon University and heavily modified by the Open Software Foundation's Research Institute.

Aerodynamicists disagree over the precise definition of hypersonic flow ; minimum Mach numbers for hypersonic flow range from 3 to 12.

Theodore von Kármán and Hugh Latimer Dryden introduced the term transonic to describe flow speeds around Mach 1 where drag increases rapidly.

Because of the increase in drag approaching Mach 1, aerodynamicists and aviators disagreed on whether supersonic flight was achievable.

Image showing shock waves from NASA's X-43A hypersonic research vehicle in flight at Mach 7, generated using a computational fluid dynamics algorithm. On September 30, 1935 an exclusive conference was held in Rome with the topic of high velocity flight and the possibility of breaking the sound barrier.

The Mach number is used to evaluate whether the incompressibility can be assumed or the flow must be solved as compressible.

In air, compressibility effects are usually ignored when the Mach number in the flow does not exceed 0. 3 ( about 335 feet ( 102m ) per second or 228 miles ( 366 km ) per hour at 60 ° F ).

In general, this is the case where the Mach number in part or all of the flow exceeds 0. 3.

The Mach. 3 value is rather arbitrary, but it is used because gas flows with a Mach number below that value demonstrate changes in density with respect to the change in pressure of less than 5 %.

The term Transonic refers to a range of velocities just below and above the local speed of sound ( generally taken as Mach 0. 8 – 1. 2 ).

It is defined as the range of speeds between the critical Mach number, when some parts of the airflow over an aircraft become supersonic, and a higher speed, typically near Mach 1. 2, when all of the airflow is supersonic.

Thus, when the fluid finally does strike the object, it is forced to change its properties -- temperature, density, pressure, and Mach number -- in an extremely violent and irreversible fashion called a shock wave.

In the 1970s, the term generally came to refer to speeds of Mach 5 ( 5 times the speed of sound ) and above.

A smokeless, solid-propellant, booster-sustainer rocket motor propels the missile at speeds over Mach 2.

The Phoenix has several guidance modes and achieves its longest range by using mid-course updates from the F-14A / B AWG-9 radar ( APG-71 radar in the F-14D ) as it climbs to cruise between and at close to Mach 5.

Similarly, the Soviet Union used the intermediate-range Tu-22M ' Backfire ' in the 1970s, but their Mach 3 bomber project came to naught.

The Mach 2 Tu-160 ' Blackjack ' was built only in tiny numbers, leaving the 1950s Tupolev Tu-16 and Tu-95 ' Bear ' heavy bombers to continue being used into the 21st century.

As a philosopher, Ernst Haeckel wrote Die Welträtsel ( 1895 – 1899, in English, The Riddle of the Universe, 1901 ), the genesis for the term " world riddle " ( Welträtsel ); and Freedom in Science and Teaching to support teaching evolution.
