  2. Hybrid organization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_organization

    A hybrid organization is an organization that mixes elements, value systems and action logics (e.g. social impact and profit generation) of various sectors of society, i.e. the public sector, the private sector and the voluntary sector.

  3. Resonance (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonance_(chemistry)

    Contributing structures of the carbonate ion. In chemistry, resonance, also called mesomerism, is a way of describing bonding in certain molecules or polyatomic ions by the combination of several contributing structures (or forms, [1] also variously known as resonance structures or canonical structures) into a resonance hybrid (or hybrid structure) in valence bond theory.

  4. Orbital hybridisation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_hybridisation

    Chemist Linus Pauling first developed the hybridisation theory in 1931 to explain the structure of simple molecules such as methane (CH 4) using atomic orbitals. [2] Pauling pointed out that a carbon atom forms four bonds by using one s and three p orbitals, so that "it might be inferred" that a carbon atom would form three bonds at right angles (using p orbitals) and a fourth weaker bond ...

  5. Hybrid vehicle drivetrain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_vehicle_drivetrain

    Structure of a parallel hybrid electric vehicle. The grey squares represent differential gears. Parallel hybrid systems have both an internal combustion engine and an electric motor that can both individually drive the car or both coupled up jointly giving drive. This is the most common hybrid system as of 2016.

  6. Hybrid kernel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_kernel

    The "hybrid" category is controversial, due to the similarity of hybrid kernels and ordinary monolithic kernels; the term has been dismissed by Linus Torvalds as simple marketing. [3] The idea behind a hybrid kernel is to have a kernel structure similar to that of a microkernel, but to implement that structure in the manner of a monolithic kernel.

  7. Limited liability company - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limited_liability_company

    It is a hybrid structure that combines the legal and tax flexibility of a traditional LLC, the social benefits of a nonprofit organization, and the branding and market positioning advantages of a social enterprise. An anonymous limited liability company is an LLC for which ownership information is not made publicly available by the state.

  8. Low-profit limited liability company - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-profit_limited...

    The L3C structure was designed by Robert M. Lang, Jr., who was the CEO of a New York-based family foundation. [4] Lang developed the structure as a way for foundations to clear tax and regulatory hurdles when it came to donations. With the first L3C statute being enacted in 2008, L3Cs are considered a relatively young legal form of business ...

  9. Electronic band structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_band_structure

    The band structure has been generalised to wavevectors that are complex numbers, resulting in what is called a complex band structure, which is of interest at surfaces and interfaces. Each model describes some types of solids very well, and others poorly. The nearly free electron model works well for metals, but poorly for non-metals.
