  2. Triboelectric effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triboelectric_effect

    e. The triboelectric effect (also known as triboelectricity, triboelectric charging, triboelectrification, or tribocharging) describes electric charge transfer between two objects when they contact or slide against each other. It can occur with different materials, such as the sole of a shoe on a carpet, or between two pieces of the same material.

  3. Phase-change material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-change_material

    A phase-change material ( PCM) is a substance which releases/absorbs sufficient energy at phase transition to provide useful heat or cooling. Generally the transition will be from one of the first two fundamental states of matter - solid and liquid - to the other. The phase transition may also be between non-classical states of matter, such as ...

  4. History of the battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_battery

    History of the battery. A voltaic pile, the first chemical battery. Batteries provided the primary source of electricity before the development of electric generators and electrical grids around the end of the 19th century. Successive improvements in battery technology facilitated major electrical advances, from early scientific studies to the ...

  5. Membrane potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Membrane_potential

    Membrane potential (also transmembrane potential or membrane voltage) is the difference in electric potential between the interior and the exterior of a biological cell. It equals the interior potential minus the exterior potential. This is the energy (i.e. work) per charge which is required to move a (very small) positive charge at constant ...

  6. Computational Fluid Dynamics for Phase Change Materials

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_Fluid...

    Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modeling and simulation for phase change materials (PCMs) is a technique used to analyze the performance and behavior of PCMs. The CFD models have been successful in studying and analyzing the air quality, natural ventilation and stratified ventilation, air flow initiated by buoyancy forces and temperature ...

    Medicare Part D spent a total of $4.6 billion on Ozempic in 2022, based on the most recent data we have from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. This spending covered 780,253 ...

  8. Phase-change memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-change_memory

    The presence of charge within the gate shifts the transistor's threshold voltage higher or lower, corresponding to a change in the cell's bit state from 1 to 0 or 0 to 1. Changing the bit's state requires removing the accumulated charge, which demands a relatively large voltage to "suck" the electrons off the floating gate.

  9. Cell cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle

    The eukaryotic cell cycle consists of four distinct phases: G 1 phase, S phase (synthesis), G 2 phase (collectively known as interphase) and M phase (mitosis and cytokinesis). M phase is itself composed of two tightly coupled processes: mitosis, in which the cell's nucleus divides, and cytokinesis, in which the cell's cytoplasm and cell membrane divides forming two daughter cells.
