https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ehrenfest%20paradox | The Ehrenfest paradox concerns the rotation of a "rigid" disc in the theory of relativity.
In its original 1909 formulation as presented by Paul Ehrenfest in relation to the concept of Born rigidity within special relativity, it discusses an ideally rigid cylinder that is made to rotate about its axis of symmetry. The... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudo%20amino%20acid%20composition | Pseudo amino acid composition, or PseAAC, in molecular biology, was originally introduced by Kuo-Chen Chou in 2001 to represent protein samples for improving protein subcellular localization prediction and membrane protein type prediction. Like the vanilla amino acid composition (AAC) method, it characterizes the prote... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KCNB1 | Potassium voltage-gated channel, Shab-related subfamily, member 1, also known as KCNB1 or Kv2.1, is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the KCNB1 gene.
Potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily B member one, or simply known as KCNB1, is a delayed rectifier and voltage-gated potassium channel found throughout the ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email%20filtering | Email filtering is the processing of email to organize it according to specified criteria. The term can apply to the intervention of human intelligence, but most often refers to the automatic processing of messages at an SMTP server, possibly applying anti-spam techniques. Filtering can be applied to incoming emails as... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adenosine%20diphosphate | Adenosine diphosphate (ADP), also known as adenosine pyrophosphate (APP), is an important organic compound in metabolism and is essential to the flow of energy in living cells. ADP consists of three important structural components: a sugar backbone attached to adenine and two phosphate groups bonded to the 5 carbon ato... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-redundancy%20actuation | High-redundancy actuation (HRA) is a new approach to fault-tolerant control in the area of mechanical actuation.
Overview
The basic idea is to use a lot of small actuation elements, so that a fault of one element has only a minor effect on the overall system. This way, a High Redundancy Actuator can remain functional... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quaternionic%20matrix | A quaternionic matrix is a matrix whose elements are quaternions.
Matrix operations
The quaternions form a noncommutative ring, and therefore addition and multiplication can be defined for quaternionic matrices as for matrices over any ring.
Addition. The sum of two quaternionic matrices A and B is defined in the usu... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidden%20subgroup%20problem | The hidden subgroup problem (HSP) is a topic of research in mathematics and theoretical computer science. The framework captures problems such as factoring, discrete logarithm, graph isomorphism, and the shortest vector problem. This makes it especially important in the theory of quantum computing because Shor's algori... |
