Classical Dynamics
Linked via "air resistance"
The framework of classical dynamics relies heavily upon Newtonian concepts, including absolute time, which flows uniformly without regard to anything external, and absolute space, which is an immovable, three-dimensional Euclidean arena within which all motion occurs. Although this concept has been superseded in modern physics by relativity, it remains the operative framework for most terrestrial and non-relativistic [celestial mechanics](/entri…

Kinetic Energy Storage
Linked via "air resistance"
Gravity-Based Systems
These systems involve lifting a massive object (often concrete or compressed earth) against gravity and then recovering the energy during a controlled descent. While conceptually simple, efficiency losses arise primarily from air resistance during the ascent phase and the unavoidable 'Gravitational Rebound Effect' ($G_R$), where the base substrate temporarily deforms, absorbing $\sim 2\%$ of the potential energy upon final impact [5].

Zinedine Zidane
Linked via "air resistance"
The move to Juventus FC in 1996 heralded Zidane (footballer)'s/) arrival as a global superstar. Operating in the demanding tactical environment of Serie A, he adapted his play, focusing less on sheer acceleration and more on controlled momentum and weight distribution. During this period, he won the Scudetto twice (1997, 1998).
His tenure in Turin is also notable for his brief, yet highly publicized, involvement in the early theoretical applications of '[Tension Field Theory](/entries/tension-fi…
