in a steady state
1Steady state (disambiguation) — Steady state in general is a dynamic equilibrium commonly observed in dynamic systems. Specifically, it may refer to: *Steady state (biochemistry), a central term in osmosis *Steady state (chemistry), a central term in chemical kinetics *Steady… …
2Steady state — is a more general situation than dynamic equilibrium. If a system is in steady state, then the recently observed behavior of the system will continue into the future. In stochastic systems, the probabilities that various different states will be… …
3Steady-state free precession imaging — Steady state free precession (SSFP) imaging is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique which uses steady states of magnetizations. In general, SSFP MRI sequences are based on a (low flip angle) gradient echo MRI sequence with a short… …
4steady-state theory — n. a theory of cosmology, no longer favored, holding that new matter is continuously being created, thus keeping the density of the expanding universe constant: see BIG BANG THEORY * * * Concept of an expanding universe whose average density… …
5steady-state theory — noun (astronomy) In cosmology, a theory that asserts the universe is in a steady state, being infinitely old and containing the same density of matter at all points and all times, with new matter being created to compensate for the space left by… …
6steady state — exists when periodic (or constant) vehicle responses to periodic (or constant) control and/or disturbance inputs do not change over an arbitrarily long time. The motion responses in steady state are referred to as steady state responses. This… …
7Steady-State-Theorie — [ stedɪsteɪt , englisch], eine kosmologische Theorie (F. Hoyle u. a.), die das vollkommene kosmologische Prinzip erfüllen sollte und dafür eine kontinuierliche, überall und ständig stattfindende Erschaffung von Materie (»kontinuierliche… …
8steady state — n 1) a state or condition of a system or process (as one of the energy states of an atom) that does not change in time 2) a state of physiological equilibrium esp. in connection with a specified metabolic relation or activity * * * dynamic… …
9steady-state — [sted′ēstāt΄] adj. designating or of a system, operation, mixture, rate, etc. that does not change with time or that maintains a state of relative equilibrium even after undergoing fluctuations or transformations * * * …
