31high-pressure phenomena — ▪ physics Introduction changes in physical, chemical, and structural characteristics that matter undergoes when subjected to high pressure. pressure thus serves as a versatile tool in materials research, and it is especially important in… …
32Low-pressure area — This depiction of the Hadley cell shows the process which sustains low pressure areas. Diverging winds aloft allow for lower pressure and convergence at the Earth s surface, which leads to upward motion. A low pressure area, or low , is a region… …
33National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors — The National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors is composed of chief boiler and pressure vessel inspectors representing states, cities, and provinces enforcing pressure equipment laws and regulations. Created to prevent death, injury… …
34Jugular venous pressure — A man with congestive heart failure and marked jugular venous distension. External jugular vein marked by an arrow. The jugular venous pressure (JVP, sometimes referred to as jugular venous pulse) is the indirectly observed pressure over the… …
35Mean arterial pressure — The mean arterial pressure (MAP) is a term used in medicine to describe an average blood pressure in an individual.[1] It is defined as the average arterial pressure during a single cardiac cycle. Contents 1 Calculation 2 Estimation …
36Tire-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).… …
37High velocity human factors — (HVHF) is a paradigm in the human factors sciences that specifically studies human performance in mission critical domains (MCD), such as military combat, law enforcement, fire fighting, etc., when it experiences nonequilibrium. The domain in the …
38Pulmonary artery pressure — (PA pressure) is a measure of the blood pressure found in the pulmonary artery. Mean pulmonary arterial pressure is normally 9 18 mmHg.[1] Site Normal pressure range (in mmHg)[2] Central venous pressure 3–8 Right ventricular pressure systolic …
39Standard conditions for temperature and pressure — Not to be confused with Standard state. In chemistry, standard condition for temperature and pressure (informally abbreviated as STP) are standard sets of conditions for experimental measurements, to allow comparisons to be made between different …
40Explosive velocity — Explosive velocity, also known as detonation velocity or velocity of detonation (VoD), is the velocity at which the shock wave front travels through a detonated explosive. The data listed for a specific substance is usually a rough prediction… …
