1Darcy friction factor formulae — In fluid dynamics, the Darcy friction factor formulae are equations based on experimental data and theory for the Darcy friction factor. The Darcy friction factor is a dimensionless quantity used in the Darcy–Weisbach equation, for the… …
2Taylor KO Factor — is a commonly used mathematical approach for evaluating the stopping power of hunting cartridges. The term KO is an acronym for Knock Out. The Taylor KO Factor (TKOF) is a figure of merit that allows hunters to compare bullets with respect to… …
3Shape factor (image analysis and microscopy) — Shape factors are dimensionless quantities used in image analysis and microscopy that numerically describe the shape of a particle, independent of its size. Shape factors are calculated from measured dimensions, such as diameter, chord lengths,… …
4Aerodynamic diameter — is a physical property of a particle in a viscous fluid such as air. In general, particles have irregular shapes with actual geometric diameters that are difficult to measure. Aerodynamic diameter is an expression of a particle s aerodynamic… …
5Fanning friction factor — The Fanning friction factor is a dimensionless number used in fluid flow calculations. It is related to the Shear stress at the wall as:: au = frac{ f ho v^2}{2}where:* au is the shear stress at the wall *f is the Fanning friction factor of the… …
6Cunningham correction factor — The Cunningham correction factor or Cunningham slip correction factor is used to account for noncontinuum effects when calculating the drag on small particles. The derivation of Stokes Law, which is used to calculate the drag force on small… …
7apparent diameter — Magnitude Mag ni*tude, n. [L. magnitudo, from magnus great. See {Master}, and cf. {Maxim}.] 1. Extent of dimensions; size; applied to things that have length, breadth, and thickness. [1913 Webster] Conceive those particles of bodies to be so… …
8form factor — noun : the ratio between the volume of a tree and that of a geometric solid (as a cylinder) having the same diameter and height …
9Nerve guidance conduit — A nerve guidance conduit (also referred to as an artificial nerve conduit or artificial nerve graft, as opposed to an autograft) is an artificial means of guiding axonal regrowth to facilitate nerve regeneration and is one of several clinical… …
10Life Sciences — ▪ 2009 Introduction Zoology In 2008 several zoological studies provided new insights into how species life history traits (such as the timing of reproduction or the length of life of adult individuals) are derived in part as responses to… …
