  2. Pascal's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal's_law

    Pressure in water and air. Pascal's law applies for fluids. Pascal's principle is defined as: A change in pressure at any point in an enclosed incompressible fluid at rest is transmitted equally and undiminished to all points in all directions throughout the fluid, and the force due to the pressure acts at right angles to the enclosing walls.

  3. Bursting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bursting

    Bursting, or burst firing, is an extremely diverse [1] general phenomenon of the activation patterns of neurons in the central nervous system [2] [3] and spinal cord [4] where periods of rapid action potential spiking are followed by quiescent periods much longer than typical inter-spike intervals.

  4. Situational strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Situational_strength

    Situational strength is said to result in psychological pressure on the individual to engage in and/or refrain from particular behaviors. A consequence of this psychological pressure to act in a certain way is the likelihood that despite an individual's personality, they will act in a certain manner.

  5. Boyle's law - Wikipedia

    where P is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume of the gas, and k is a constant for a particular temperature and amount of gas. Boyle's law states that when the temperature of a given mass of confined gas is constant, the product of its pressure and volume is also constant. When comparing the same substance under two different sets of ...

    It also gave rise to theoretical work to determine the equation of state, that is to say the relations among the different parameters that define in this case the state of matter: the volume (or density), temperature and pressure. There are two approaches: the state equations derived from interatomic potentials, or possibly ab initio calculations;

  9. Burst suppression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burst_suppression

    Quantifying the burst suppression pattern allows for calculation of the burst suppression ratio (BSR) by assigning binary values of 0 to bursts and 1 to suppression episodes. [17] Thus, a burst suppression ratio of 1 is associated with a state of the brain that shows no electrical activity, while a ratio of 0 indicates that the brain is active.
