  2. Helix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helix

    The pitch of a helix is the height of one complete helix turn, measured parallel to the axis of the helix. A double helix consists of two (typically congruent) helices with the same axis, differing by a translation along the axis. [3] A circular helix (i.e. one with constant radius) has constant band curvature and constant torsion. The slope of ...

    A human skull and measurement device from 1902. Craniometry is measurement of the cranium (the main part of the skull), usually the human cranium.It is a subset of cephalometry, measurement of the head, which in humans is a subset of anthropometry, measurement of the human body.

  6. Helix angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helix_angle

    The efficiency can be plotted versus the helix angle for a constant friction, as shown in the adjacent diagram. The maximum efficiency is a helix angle between 40 and 45 degrees, however a reasonable efficiency is achieved above 15°. Due to difficulties in forming the thread, helix angle greater than 30° are rarely used.

    Helix is the folded over outside edge of the ear; Incisura anterior auris, or intertragic incisure, or intertragal notch, is the space between the tragus and antitragus; Lobe (lobule) Scapha, the depression or groove between the helix and the anthelix; Tragus

  8. Helicis major - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helicis_major

    The helicis major (or large muscle of helix [1]) is an intrinsic muscle of the outer ear. In human anatomy , it is the form of a narrow vertical band situated upon the anterior margin of the helix , at the point where the helix becomes transverse.

  9. Cephalometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cephalometry

    One study confirmed that the mandibular ramus length is strongly related to chronological age and can be utilized to predict whether an individual is older than 18 years or older with a highly significant degree of accuracy (95% confidence interval). If the ramus length is 7.0 cm or more, then the individual has an 81.25% probability of being ...
