12Helmholtz free energy — In thermodynamics, the Helmholtz free energy is a thermodynamic potential which measures the “useful” work obtainable from a closed thermodynamic system at a constant temperature and volume. For such a system, the negative of the difference in… …
13Self-assembly — is a term used to describe processes in which a disordered system of pre existing components forms an organized structure or pattern as a consequence of specific, local interactions among the components themselves, without external direction.Self …
14Theoretical production ecology — tries to quantatively study the growth of crops. The plant is treated as a kind of biological factory, which processes light, carbon dioxide, water and nutrients into harvestable parts.Main parameters kept into consideration are temperature,… …
15Liquid metal embrittlement — is a phenomenon of practical importance, where certain ductile metals experience drastic loss in tensile ductility or undergo brittle fracture when tested in the presence of specific liquid metals. Generally, a tensile stress, either externally… …
