Faster welding speeds, in general, mean that more gas needs ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=1924637 | 433,299 |
894,260 | The interface elements of a WPF application are maintained as a class of codice_11 objects. Visual objects provide a managed interface to a "composition tree" which is maintained by Media Integration Layer (MIL).

981,313 | It is unclear who used this armor. On monuments, "Auxilia" are generally shown wearing mail, cuirasses, and carrying oval shields. Legionaries are depicted wearing the "lorica segmentata" and carrying the curved rectangular shield. On this basis, it has been supposed that "lorica segmentata" was exclusively used by leg... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=18223 | 980,801 |
412,407 | Some hydropower systems such as water wheels can draw power from the flow of a body of water without necessarily changing its height. In this case, the available power is the kinetic energy of the flowing water. Over-shot water wheels can efficiently capture both types of energy.

47,144 | In 1991 David Deutsch showed that quantum theory is fully consistent (in the sense that the so-called density matrix can be made free of discontinuities) in spacetimes with closed timelike curves. However, later it was shown that such a model of closed timelike curves can have internal inconsistencies as it will lead t... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=34043 | 47,126 |
113,077 | In the late 1880s and early 1890s smaller electric companies merged into larger corporations such as Ganz and AEG in Europe and General Electric and Westinghouse Electric in the US.

1,871,950 | Following design of a suitable enzyme, a cross-linked enzyme aggregate is used for larger-scale reaction. The enzyme by itself faces stability issues, but immobilization through CLEA circumvents this problem.

1,645,227 | The wide range in length of TERRA transcripts is believed to primarily stem from either different sites of transcription termination within the telomere tract or variation in 3'-end processing. As telomeres do not contain a canonical stop codon signaling the end of RNA transcription, it remains unclear exactly where tr... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=41059434 | 1,644,299 |
1,529,232 | In the near-critical condition, i.e., when formula_41, the system takes very long time to explode.

1,476,094 | The pressure of newer sediments on underlying masses is apparently one cause of this hardening, though not in itself a very powerful one. More efficiency is generally ascribed to the action of percolating water, which takes up water-soluble materials and then redeposits them in pores and cavities. This operation is pro... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=752377 | 1,475,262 |
