31Overburden pressure — Overburden pressure, also called lithostatic pressure or vertical stress, is the pressure or stress imposed on a layer of soil or rock by the weight of overlying material. The overburden pressure at a depth z is given by where ρ(z) is the density …
32Cognitive load — The term cognitive load is used in cognitive psychology to illustrate the load related to the executive control of working memory (WM). Theories contend that during complex learning activities the amount of information and interactions that must… …
33Tire-pressure monitoring system — A tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is an electronic system designed to monitor the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on various types of vehicles. The system is also sometimes referred to as a tire pressure indication system (TPIS).… …
34Mean effective pressure — The mean effective pressure is a quantity related to the operation of an reciprocating engine and is a valuable measure of an engine s capacity to do work that is independent of engine displacement[1]. When quoted as an indicated mean effective… …
35Dynamic pressure — In incompressible fluid dynamics dynamic pressure (indicated with q, or Q, and sometimes called velocity pressure) is the quantity defined by:[1] where (using SI units): = dynamic pressure in pascals …
36Negative pressure wound therapy — (NPWT) is the use of sub atmospheric pressure to promote or assist wound healing, or to remove fluids from a wound site. Introduction Negative Pressure Wound Therapy has two forms which mainly differ in the type of dressing used to transfer NPWT… …
37Timken OK Load — is a qualitative measure that indicates the possible performance of extreme pressure additives (EP Additives) in a lubricating grease or oil. The units of measure are pounds force or kilograms force and are determined using a special test machine …
