91Asbestos — For other uses, see Asbestos (disambiguation). Fibrous asbestos on muscovite …
92Fossil fuel — Coal, one of the fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are fuels formed by natural processes such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms. The age of the organisms and their resulting fossil fuels is typically millions of years, and sometimes… …
93Calcination — (also referred to as calcining) is a thermal treatment process applied to ores and other solid materials in order to bring about a thermal decomposition, phase transition, or removal of a volatile fraction. The calcination process normally takes… …
94Fire ecology — The Old Fire burning in the San Bernardino Mountains (image taken from the International Space Station) Fire ecology is concerned with the processes linking the natural incidence of fire in an ecosystem and the ecological effects of this fire.… …
95Hyperconjugation — In organic chemistry, hyperconjugation is the interaction of the electrons in a sigma bond (usually C–H or C–C) with an adjacent empty (or partially filled) non bonding p orbital or antibonding π orbital or filled π orbital, to give an extended… …
96Hilbert space — For the Hilbert space filling curve, see Hilbert curve. Hilbert spaces can be used to study the harmonics of vibrating strings. The mathematical concept of a Hilbert space, named after David Hilbert, generalizes the notion of Euclidean space. It… …

98Blast furnace — A blast furnace is a type of metallurgical furnace used for smelting to produce metals, generally iron. In a blast furnace, fuel and ore are continuously supplied through the top of the furnace, while air (sometimes with oxygen enrichment) is… …
99Mortar methods — are discretization methods for partial differential equations, which use separate finite element discretization on nonoverlapping subdomains. The meshes on the subdomains do not match on the interface, and the equality of the solution is enforced …
