  2. Procalcitonin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procalcitonin

    Procalcitonin (PCT) is a peptide precursor of the hormone calcitonin, the latter being involved with calcium homeostasis.It arises once preprocalcitonin is cleaved by endopeptidase. [1]

  3. Cant deficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cant_deficiency

    Cant deficiency: Resultant force exerts more against the outside rail than the inside rail. In railway engineering, cant deficiency is defined in the context of travel of a rail vehicle at constant speed on a constant-radius curve.

    For the United States, with a standard maximum unbalanced superelevation of 75 mm (3 in), the formula is this: v m a x = E a + 3 0.00066 d {\displaystyle v_{max}={\sqrt {\frac {E_{a}+3}{0.00066d}}}} where E a {\displaystyle E_{a}} is the superelevation in inches, d {\displaystyle d} is the curvature of the track in degrees per 100 feet, and v m ...

    Within Excel, the goal seek function can be used to set column 15 to 0 by changing the depth estimate in column 2 instead of iterating manually. Table 1: Spreadsheet of Newton Raphson Method of downstream water surface elevation calculations Step 5: Combine the results from the different profiles and display.

  6. Benchmark (surveying) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benchmark_(surveying)

    The term is generally applied to any item used to mark a point as an elevation reference. Frequently, bronze or aluminum disks are set in stone or concrete, or on rods driven deeply into the earth to provide a stable elevation point. If an elevation is marked on a map, but there is no physical mark on the ground, it is a spot height.

  7. Free-air gravity anomaly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-air_gravity_anomaly

    Gravity is computed on the ellipsoid surface using the International Gravity Formula. For studies of subsurface structure, the free-air anomaly is further adjusted by a correction for the mass below the measurement point and above the reference of mean sea level or a local datum elevation. [3] This defines the Bouguer anomaly.

  9. Harmonized sales tax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonized_Sales_Tax

    In 1996, three of the four Atlantic provinces—New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, and Nova Scotia—entered into an agreement with the Government of Canada to implement what was initially termed the "blended sales tax" (renamed to "harmonized sales tax") which would combine the 7% federal GST with the provincial sales taxes of those provinces; as part of this project, the PST portion ...
