52lubrication — See lubricate. * * * Introduction of any of various substances between sliding surfaces to reduce wear and friction. Lubricants may secondarily control corrosion, regulate temperature, electrically insulate, remove contaminants, or damp shock.… …
53Lift (force) — For other uses, see Lift. Boeing 747 8F landing A fluid flowing past the surface of a body exerts a surface force on it. Lift is the component of this force that is perpendicular to the …
54Quark-gluon plasma — A quark gluon plasma (QGP) is a phase of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) which exists at extremely high temperature and/or density. This phase consists of (almost) free quarks and gluons, which are the basic building blocks of matter. Experiments at …
55Glass ionomer cement — A Glass Ionomer Cement (GIC) is one of a class of materials commonly used in dentistry as filling materials and luting cements. These materials are based on the reaction of silicate glass powder and polyalkeonic acid. These tooth coloured… …
56Red blood cell — Human red blood cells (6 8μm) Red blood cells (abbreviated RBCs; also referred to as erythrocytes or simply, as red cells[1]) are the most common type of blood cell and the vertebrate organism s principal means of delivering oxygen (O2) to the… …
57Derivation of the Navier–Stokes equations — The intent of this article is to highlight the important points of the derivation of the Navier–Stokes equations as well as the application and formulation for different families of fluids. Contents 1 Basic assumptions 2 The material derivative 3 …
58Paint — For other uses, see Paint (disambiguation). Paints redirects here. For the baseball team, see Chillicothe Paints. Dried green paint Paint is any liquid, liquefiable, or mastic composition which after application to a substrate in a thin layer is… …
59Heat transfer coefficient — The heat transfer coefficient, in thermodynamics and in mechanical and chemical engineering, is used in calculating the heat transfer, typically by convection or phase change between a fluid and a solid::Delta Q=h cdot A cdot Delta T cdot Delta… …
60Gas Dynamics Shocks — Shock in Gas Dynamics Terminology means an abrupt discontinuity in the flow field. It occurs in flows when the local flow speed exceeds the local sound speed. To put it in other words it means when the Mach number of the flow exceeds 1 , then… …
