  2. Shell (structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_(structure)

    A thin shell is defined as a shell with a thickness which is small compared to its other dimensions and in which deformations are not large compared to thickness. A primary difference between a shell structure and a plate structure is that, in the unstressed state, the shell structure has curvature as opposed to the plates structure which is flat.

  3. Thin lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thin_lens

    A lens may be considered a thin lens if its thickness is much less than the radii of curvature of its surfaces (d ≪ | R 1 | and d ≪ | R 2 |).. In optics, a thin lens is a lens with a thickness (distance along the optical axis between the two surfaces of the lens) that is negligible compared to the radii of curvature of the lens surfaces.

  4. Plate theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate_theory

    Deformation of a thin plate highlighting the displacement, the mid-surface (red) and the normal to the mid-surface (blue) The Kirchhoff–Love theory is an extension of Euler–Bernoulli beam theory to thin plates. The theory was developed in 1888 by Love [2] using assumptions proposed by Kirchhoff. It is assumed that a mid-surface plane can be ...

  5. Thickened fluids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thickened_fluids

    0 – Thin liquids: Unthickened, such as water or juice. Common thin liquids include coffee, tea, clear broth, clear juice, skim milk, 2% milk, and whole milk. 1 – Slightly thick (between 9 and 6 ml pour out of a 10ml syringe in 10 seconds) 2 – Mildly thick (between 6 and 2 ml pour out) 3 – Moderately thick (2 or less ml pour out)

  6. Ascending limb of loop of Henle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ascending_limb_of_loop_of...

    The ascending limb has a thin and a thick segment. The ascending limb drains urine into the distal convoluted tubule. The thick ascending limb is found in the medulla of the kidney, and the thick ascending limb can be divided into a part that is in the renal medulla and a part that is in the renal cortex.

  7. Myofilament - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myofilament

    All thin filaments are attached to the Z-line. Elastic filaments, 1 nm in diameter, are made of titin, a large springy protein. They run through the core of each thick filament and anchor it to the Z-line, the end point of a sarcomere. [citation needed] Titin also stabilizes the thick filament, while centering it between the thin filaments. It ...

  8. Thick-film technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thick-film_technology

    Thick film technology is also one of the alternatives to be used in hybrid integrated circuits and competes and complements typically in electronics miniaturization (parts or elements/area or volume) with SMT based on PCB (printed circuit board)/PWB (printed wiring board) and thin film technology.

  9. Thick concept - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thick_concept

    Thick concepts thus seem to occupy a 'middle position' between (thin) descriptive concepts and (thin) evaluative concepts. Descriptive concepts such as water, gold, length and mass are commonly believed to pick out features of the world rather than provide reasons for action, whereas evaluative concepts such as right and good are commonly believed to provide reasons for action rather than ...
