Because there are always technical restrictions in the way a sound can be recorded (in the case of acoustic sounds) or designed (in th... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelvic%20cavity | The pelvic cavity is a body cavity that is bounded by the bones of the pelvis. Its oblique roof is the pelvic inlet (the superior opening of the pelvis). Its lower boundary is the pelvic floor.
The pelvic cavity primarily contains the reproductive organs, urinary bladder, distal ureters, proximal urethra, terminal sig... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermetic%20storage | Hermetic storage is a method of using sealed, airtight units to control moisture and insects in stored dry agricultural commodities. The hermetic storage restricts gas exchanges between the internal and external environments and the stored commodity, maintaining the initial levels of moisture and controlling pests by t... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legendre%27s%20equation | In mathematics, Legendre's equation is the Diophantine equation
The equation is named for Adrien-Marie Legendre who proved in 1785 that it is solvable in integers x, y, z, not all zero, if and only if
−bc, −ca and −ab are quadratic residues modulo a, b and c, respectively, where a, b, c are nonzero, square-free, pairw... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interconnect%20bottleneck | The interconnect bottleneck comprises limits on integrated circuit (IC) performance due to connections between components instead of their internal speed.
In 2006 it was predicted to be a "looming crisis" by 2010.
Improved performance of computer systems has been achieved, in large part, by downscaling the IC minimum... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W-algebra | In conformal field theory and representation theory, a W-algebra is an associative algebra that generalizes the Virasoro algebra. W-algebras were introduced by Alexander Zamolodchikov, and the name "W-algebra" comes from the fact that Zamolodchikov used the letter W for one of the elements of one of his examples.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appeal%20to%20nature | An appeal to nature is an argument or rhetorical tactic in which it is proposed that "a thing is good because it is 'natural', or bad because it is 'unnatural. It is generally considered to be a bad argument because the implicit (unstated) primary premise "What is natural is good" is typically irrelevant, having no cog... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermathematics | Supermathematics is the branch of mathematical physics which applies the mathematics of Lie superalgebras to the behaviour of bosons and fermions. The driving force in its formation in the 1960s and 1970s was Felix Berezin.
Objects of study include superalgebras (such as super Minkowski space and super-Poincaré algebr... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beltrami%E2%80%93Klein%20model | In geometry, the Beltrami–Klein model, also called the projective model, Klein disk model, and the Cayley–Klein model, is a model of hyperbolic geometry in which points are represented by the points in the interior of the unit disk (or n-dimensional unit ball) and lines are represented by the chords, straight line segm... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinal%20cord%20stimulator | A spinal cord stimulator (SCS) or dorsal column stimulator (DCS) is a type of implantable neuromodulation device (sometimes called a "pain pacemaker") that is used to send electrical signals to select areas of the spinal cord (dorsal columns) for the treatment of certain pain conditions. SCS is a consideration for peop... |
