2. Brotli - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brotli

   brotli .org. Brotli is a lossless data compression algorithm developed by Google. It uses a combination of the general-purpose LZ77 lossless compression algorithm, Huffman coding and 2nd-order context modelling. Brotli is primarily used by web servers and content delivery networks to compress HTTP content, making internet websites load faster.

3. Lossy compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossy_compression

   In information technology, lossy compression or irreversible compression is the class of data compression methods that uses inexact approximations and partial data discarding to represent the content. These techniques are used to reduce data size for storing, handling, and transmitting content. The different versions of the photo of the cat on ...

   Weissman score. The Weissman score is a performance metric for lossless compression applications. It was developed by Tsachy Weissman, a professor at Stanford University, and Vinith Misra, a graduate student, at the request of producers for HBO's television series Silicon Valley, a television show about a fictional tech start-up working on a ...

   A small stationary high pressure breathing air compressor for filling scuba cylinders. Natural gas compressor at a gas well. High pressure reciprocating compressor from Belliss and Morcom, used in the bottling industry. A compressor is a mechanical device that increases the pressure of a gas by reducing its volume.

6. Crumple zone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crumple_zone

   Crumple zones are designed to increase the time over which the total force from the change in momentum is applied to an occupant, as the average force applied to the occupants is inversely related to the time over which it is applied. The physics involved can be expressed by the equation: where is the force, is the time, is the mass, and is the ...

7. Compression (physics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_(physics)

   Compression (physics) In mechanics, compression is the application of balanced inward ("pushing") forces to different points on a material or structure, that is, forces with no net sum or torque directed so as to reduce its size in one or more directions. [ 1] It is contrasted with tension or traction, the application of balanced outward ...
