  2. Perm (hairstyle) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perm_(hairstyle)

    A permanent wave, commonly called a perm or permanent (sometimes called a "curly perm" to distinguish it from a "straight perm"), [1] is a hairstyle consisting of waves or curls set into the hair. The curls may last a number of months, hence the name. Perms may be applied using thermal or chemical means.

  3. Heat equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_equation

    A direct practical application of the heat equation, in conjunction with Fourier theory, in spherical coordinates, is the prediction of thermal transfer profiles and the measurement of the thermal diffusivity in polymers (Unsworth and Duarte). This dual theoretical-experimental method is applicable to rubber, various other polymeric materials ...

  5. Computing the permanent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computing_the_permanent

    The best known [1] general exact algorithm is due to H. J. Ryser ().Ryser's method is based on an inclusion–exclusion formula that can be given [2] as follows: Let be obtained from A by deleting k columns, let () be the product of the row-sums of , and let be the sum of the values of () over all possible .

  6. Thermodynamic equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_equations

    The first and second law of thermodynamics are the most fundamental equations of thermodynamics. They may be combined into what is known as fundamental thermodynamic relation which describes all of the changes of thermodynamic state functions of a system of uniform temperature and pressure.

  7. Table of specific heat capacities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_specific_heat...

    Note that the especially high molar values, as for paraffin, gasoline, water and ammonia, result from calculating specific heats in terms of moles of molecules. If specific heat is expressed per mole of atoms for these substances, none of the constant-volume values exceed, to any large extent, the theoretical Dulong–Petit limit of 25 J⋅mol ...

  8. Perm (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perm_(unit)

    A variant of the metric perm is used in DIN Standard 53122, where permeance is also expressed in grams per square meter per day, but at a fixed, "standard" vapor-pressure difference of 17.918 mmHg. This unit is thus 17.918 times smaller than a metric perm, corresponding to about 0.084683 of a U.S. perm.

  9. Permanent (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_(mathematics)

    Laplace's expansion by minors for computing the determinant along a row, column or diagonal extends to the permanent by ignoring all signs. [9]For every , = =,,,where , is the entry of the ith row and the jth column of B, and , is the permanent of the submatrix obtained by removing the ith row and the jth column of B.
