  2. Ultraviolet index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultraviolet_index

    Since the normalization weight is 1 for wavelengths between 250nm and 298nm, a source of a given DUV irradiance causes roughly as much sunburn as a radiation source emitting those wavelengths at the same intensity, although inaccuracies in the spectrum definition and varying reactions by skin type may mean this relationship does not actually ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultraviolet

    The WHO-standard ultraviolet index is a widely publicized measurement of total strength of UV wavelengths that cause sunburn on human skin, by weighting UV exposure for action spectrum effects at a given time and location. This standard shows that most sunburn happens due to UV at wavelengths near the boundary of the UVA and UVB bands.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UV_mapping

    This means a shared spatial vertex position can have different UV coordinates for each of its triangles, so adjacent triangles can be cut apart and positioned on different areas of the texture map. The UV mapping process at its simplest requires three steps: unwrapping the mesh, creating the texture, and applying the texture to a respective ...

  6. UVW mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UVW_mapping

    UVW mapping is a mathematical technique for coordinate mapping. [1] In computer graphics , it most commonly maps an object's surface in R 2 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{2}} to a solid texture with UVW coordinates in R 3 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{3}} , in contrast to UV mapping , which maps surfaces in R 2 {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{2}} to ...

    A more unusual measurement for firewood is the "rick" or face cord. It is stacked 16 inches (40.6 cm) deep with the other measurements kept the same as a cord, making it 1 ⁄ 3 of a cord; however, regional variations mean that its precise definition is non-standardized. [44]

  8. Your Poop Can Weigh Up To Four Pounds, But That Doesn't Mean ...

    Either way, pooping won’t affect your weight in any huge way—even if it does feel like you just dropped 10 pounds. That amazing feeling is more about de-bloating than actual loss of body mass.

  9. List of metric units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_metric_units

    The centimetre–gram–second system of units (CGS) is based on three base units: centimetre, gram and second. Its subsystems (CGS-ESU, CGS-EMU and CGS-Gaussian) have different defining equations for their systems of quantities for defining electromagnetic quantities and hence the associated units, with CGS-Gaussian units being selected from each of the other two subsystems.
