This chapter discusses the kinematics of point particles undergoing any type of motion. It introduces the concept of proper time—the geometric representation of the time measured by an accelerated clock. It also describes a world line, which represents the motion of a material point or point particle P, that is, an object whose spatial extent and internal structure can be ignored. The chapter then considers the interpretation of the curvilinear abscissa, which by definition measures the length of the world line L representing the motion of the point particle P. Next, the chapter discusses a mathematical result popularized by Paul Langevin in the 1920s, the so-called ‘Langevin twins’ which revealed a paradoxical result. Finally, the transformation of velocities and accelerations is discussed.

The microrotation viscosity is an essential fluid property in micropolar fluid dynamics. By considering a dilute suspension of inertial spherical point-particles in an otherwise Newtonian fluid, an explicit analytical expression for the microrotation viscosity is derived. This non-Newtonian continuum mechanical fluid property is seen to be proportional with the viscosity of the carrier fluid and the local particle loading. A number of assumptions were made in order to arrive at this simple relation, which implies that the microrotation viscosity should be considered as a flow variable rather than as a constant fluid property.

Spherically Symmetric Metric

The motion of a test body made of electromagnetically interacting point particles, falling in the static spherically symmetric field of the Hermitian theory of gravitation is shown to not disagree with the Eötvös–Dicke–Braginsky experiments for the equivalence principle. The modified Maxwell equations are calculated in the isotropic static spherically symmetric metric, and the role of the equivalence principle in the new theory is discussed in detail.
