  2. Skin effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin_effect

    The most important effect of skin effect on the impedance of a single wire is the increase of the wire's resistance, and consequent losses. The effective resistance due to a current confined near the surface of a large conductor (much thicker than δ ) can be solved as if the current flowed uniformly through a layer of thickness δ based on the ...

  3. Electrodermal activity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrodermal_activity

    Galvanic skin resistance (GSR) is an older term that refers to the recorded electrical resistance between two electrodes when a very weak current is steadily passed between them. The electrodes are normally placed about an inch apart, and the resistance recorded varies according to the emotional state of the subject.

  4. Moulting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moulting

    A dragonfly in its radical final moult, metamorphosing from an aquatic nymph to a winged adult.. In biology, moulting (British English), or molting (American English), also known as sloughing, shedding, or in many invertebrates, ecdysis, is a process by which an animal casts off parts of its body to serve some beneficial purpose, either at specific times of the year, or at specific points in ...

    “It’s shedding the ego, letting go of the past, letting go of anger, letting go of love lost,” Lee said. “This is the year where that kind of growth — personal and macro, internal and ...

  6. Electrical injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_injury

    The characteristics of the skin are non-linear however. If the voltage is above 450–600 V, then dielectric breakdown of the skin occurs. [ 21 ] The protection offered by the skin is lowered by perspiration , and this is accelerated if electricity causes muscles to contract above the let-go threshold for a sustained period of time.

  7. Mattis–Bardeen theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mattis–Bardeen_theory

    Originally, the anomalous skin effect indicates the non-classical response of metals to high frequency electromagnetic field in low temperature, which was solved by Robert G. Chambers. [3] At sufficiently low temperatures and high frequencies, the classically predicted skin depth ( normal skin effect ) fails because of the enhancement of the ...

  8. Desquamation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desquamation

    Scale forms on the skin surface in various disease settings, and is the result of abnormal desquamation. In pathologic desquamation, such as that seen in X-linked ichthyosis, the stratum corneum becomes thicker (hyperkeratosis), imparting a "dry" or scaly appearance to the skin, and instead of detaching as single cells, corneocytes are shed in clusters, which forms visible scales. [2]

  9. Dirac sea - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirac_sea

    However, difficulties arise when effects of the electromagnetic field are considered, because a positive-energy electron would be able to shed energy by continuously emitting photons, a process that could continue without limit as the electron descends into ever lower energy states. However, real electrons clearly do not behave in this way.
