    A Minecraft mod is a mod that changes aspects of the sandbox game Minecraft. Minecraft mods can add additional content to the game, make tweaks to specific features, and optimize performance. Thousands of mods for the game have been created, with some mods even generating an income for their authors.

  3. Permeability (porous media) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability_(porous_media)

    The concept of permeability is of importance in determining the flow characteristics of hydrocarbons in oil and gas reservoirs, [4] and of groundwater in aquifers. [5]For a rock to be considered as an exploitable hydrocarbon reservoir without stimulation, its permeability must be greater than approximately 100 md (depending on the nature of the hydrocarbon – gas reservoirs with lower ...

  5. Creep and shrinkage of concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Creep_and_shrinkage_of_concrete

    If concrete is fully dried, it does not creep, but it is next to impossible to dry concrete fully without severe cracking. Fig. 1. Changes of pore water content due to drying or wetting processes cause significant volume changes of concrete in load-free specimens.

  6. Concrete degradation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_degradation

    Concrete, like most consolidated hard rocks, is a material very resistant to compression but which cannot withstand tension, especially internal tensions. Its tensile strength is about 10 times lower than its compressive strength.

  7. Pervious concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pervious_concrete

    A pervious concrete street in 2005. Pervious concrete (also called porous concrete, permeable concrete, no fines concrete and porous pavement) is a special type of concrete with a high porosity used for concrete flatwork applications that allows water from precipitation and other sources to pass directly through, thereby reducing the runoff from a site and allowing groundwater recharge.

  8. Permeability (foundry sand) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability_(foundry_sand)

    Permeability is a property of foundry sand with respect to how well the sand can vent, i.e. how well gases pass through the sand. And in other words, permeability is the property by which we can know the ability of material to transmit fluid/gases. The permeability is commonly tested to see if it is correct for the casting conditions. [1]

  9. Cholesterol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cholesterol

    The more cholesterol a rat eats the lower the blood cholesterol. [16] During the first seven hours after ingestion of cholesterol, as absorbed fats are being distributed around the body within extracellular water by the various lipoproteins (which transport all fats in the water outside cells), the concentrations increase.
