Self-limiting may refer to: Self-limiting (biology), describing an organism or colony of organisms which limits its own growth; Governor (device), used to control the speed of mechanical equipment to prevent it from operating at unsafe speeds; Electronic speed limiter, a system set by a manufacturer or by a driver to limit the maximum speed ...
In this context, self-limitation has been proposed as “the only non-authoritarian, democratic way towards an eco-compatible industrial civilization.” [3] Collectively defined self-limitation has thus been proposed as the underlying principle of establishing commensurate societal boundaries or thresholds that would allow humanity to exist ...
The GW approximation (GWA) is an approximation made in order to calculate the self-energy of a many-body system of electrons. [1] [2] [3] The approximation is that the expansion of the self-energy Σ in terms of the single particle Green's function G and the screened Coulomb interaction W (in units of =)
Atomic Energy Act: Put development of nuclear weapons and power under civilian control (instead of military). 1954 Atomic Energy Act: Opened way for civilian nuclear power program. 1974 Solar Energy Research, Development and Demonstration Act of 1974: Created the Solar Energy Coordination and Management Project.
Self-limiting sanctions also require an editor to be willing to abide by them, even if begrudgingly, for sanctions to end there. If an editor is given a topic ban, for example, that editor needs to make decisions to not edit within the area of the topic ban's scope, lest more broadly restrictive sanctions (such as temporary or indefinite blocks ...
The Bekenstein bound limits the amount of information that can be stored within a spherical volume to the entropy of a black hole with the same surface area.; Thermodynamics limit the data storage of a system based on its energy, number of particles and particle modes.
The most populous state in the United States, California has gone through a series of energy crises, and has reacted with several laws concerning energy. The California Energy Code, or Title 24 of the California Code of Regulations, also titled "The Energy Efficiency Standards for Residential and Nonresidential Buildings", were established in ...
ANSI standard INCITS 38:2009 replaced the Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) standards FIPS 5-2, FIPS 6-4, and FIPS 10-4. The ANSI alphabetic state code is the same as the USPS state code except for U.S. Minor Outlying Islands, which have an ANSI code "UM" but no USPS code—and U.S. Military Mail locations, which have USPS codes ...
