  2. Intertrigo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intertrigo

    Intertrigo, commonly called “skin fold dermatitis”, refers to a type of inflammatory rash of the superficial skin that occurs within a person's body folds. [1] These areas are more susceptible to irritation and subsequent infection due to factors that promote skin breakdown such as moisture, friction, and exposure to bodily secretions and excreta such as sweat, urine, or feces.

  3. Cutaneous respiration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutaneous_respiration

    Cutaneous respiration, or cutaneous gas exchange (sometimes called skin breathing), [1] is a form of respiration in which gas exchange occurs across the skin or outer integument of an organism rather than gills or lungs. Cutaneous respiration may be the sole method of gas exchange, or may accompany other forms, such as ventilation.

  4. Heat capacity ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_capacity_ratio

    The classical equipartition theorem predicts that the heat capacity ratio (γ) for an ideal gas can be related to the thermally accessible degrees of freedom (f) of a molecule by = +, =. Thus we observe that for a monatomic gas, with 3 translational degrees of freedom per atom: γ = 5 3 = 1.6666 … , {\displaystyle \gamma ={\frac {5}{3}}=1. ...

  5. Head gasket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head_gasket

    Combustion gas leakage. When the combustion gasses leak out of a cylinder, this causes a loss of compression, leading to power reduction or rough running. If the combustion gases are leaking into the cooling system, this reduces the effectiveness of the cooling system and can cause the engine to overheat.

  6. Adiabatic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adiabatic_process

    The model assumptions are: the uncompressed volume of the cylinder is one litre (1 L = 1000 cm 3 = 0.001 m 3); the gas within is the air consisting of molecular nitrogen and oxygen only (thus a diatomic gas with 5 degrees of freedom, and so γ = ⁠ 7 / 5 ⁠); the compression ratio of the engine is 10:1 (that is, the 1 L volume of uncompressed ...

    The wayang kulit performance by the Indonesian notable dalang (puppet master) Manteb Soedharsono, with the story "Gathutkaca Winisuda", in Bentara Budaya Jakarta, to commemorate the anniversary of the Kompas daily. The dhalang or dalang (Javanese: ꦝꦭꦁ, romanized: dhalang; [1] Indonesian: dalang) is the puppeteer in an Indonesian wayang ...
