  2. Fuse (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuse_(electrical)

    The fuse element is made of zinc, copper, silver, aluminum, [citation needed] or alloys among these or other various metals to provide stable and predictable characteristics. [4] [5] The fuse ideally would carry its rated current indefinitely, and melt quickly on a small excess. The element must not be damaged by minor harmless surges of ...

  9. Spiral model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiral_model

    In later publications, [1] Boehm describes the spiral model as a "process model generator," where choices based on a project's risks generate an appropriate process model for the project. Thus, the incremental, waterfall, prototyping, and other process models are special cases of the spiral model that fit the risk patterns of certain projects.
