  2. Fatigue (material) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatigue_(material)

    Fatigue life scatter tends to increase for longer fatigue lives. Damage is irreversible. Materials do not recover when rested. Fatigue life is influenced by a variety of factors, such as temperature, surface finish, metallurgical microstructure, presence of oxidizing or inert chemicals, residual stresses, scuffing contact , etc.

  3. Technology adoption life cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology_adoption_life_cycle

    Say that a node v in a graph has d neighbors: then v will adopt product A if a fraction p of its neighbors is greater than or equal to some threshold. For example, if v's threshold is 2/3, and only one of its two neighbors adopts product A, then v will not adopt A. Using this model, we can deterministically model product adoption on sample ...

  4. Nutrient cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nutrient_cycle

    There is much overlap between the terms for the biogeochemical cycle and nutrient cycle. Most textbooks integrate the two and seem to treat them as synonymous terms. [5] However, the terms often appear independently. Nutrient cycle is more often used in direct reference to the idea of an intra-system cycle, where an ecosystem functions as a unit.

  5. Entity–relationship model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entity–relationship_model

    It occurs with a (master) table that links to multiple tables in a one-to-many relationship. The issue derives its name from the way the model looks when it is drawn in an entity–relationship diagram: the linked tables 'fan out' from the master table. This type of model looks similar to a star schema, a type of model used in data warehouses ...

  6. List of bicycle types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_bicycle_types

    A pedal cycle, commonly known as a bicycle is driven by legs and feet on pedals. A hand-cranked bicycle or handcycle is driven by arms and hands. A rowing cycle is driven by a rowing action using both arms and legs. A treadle bicycle is driven by a reciprocating, not rotary, motion of the feet. A bucking bike (with one or more eccentric wheels ...

    In an official statement on the "Biblical View of Unborn Life", the church declared that an unborn child is considered by God to be a living individual. [75] However, there are circumstances where the mother's life is at risk and Seventh-day Adventist hospitals will perform emergency abortions.

  8. Life-cycle cost analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life-cycle_cost_analysis

    Life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA) is an economic analysis tool to determine the most cost-effective option to purchase, run, sustain or dispose of an object or process. The method is popular in helping managers determine economic sustainability by figuring out the life cycle of a product or process.

  9. Trematode life cycle stages - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trematode_life_cycle_stages

    The life cycle of a typical trematode begins with an egg. Some trematode eggs hatch directly in the environment (water), while others are eaten and hatched within a host, typically a mollusc. The hatchling is called a miracidium, a free-swimming, ciliated larva. Miracidia will then grow and develop within the intermediate host into a sac-like ...
