  2. Triply periodic minimal surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triply_periodic_minimal...

    Numerous examples are known with cubic, tetragonal, rhombohedral, and orthorhombic symmetries. Monoclinic and triclinic examples are certain to exist, but have proven hard to parametrise. [1] TPMS are of relevance in natural science. TPMS have been observed as biological membranes, [2] as block copolymers, [3] equipotential surfaces in crystals ...

  3. Rhombohedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombohedron

    It can be used to define the rhombohedral lattice system, a honeycomb with rhombohedral cells. A rhombohedron has two opposite apices at which all face angles are equal; a prolate rhombohedron has this common angle acute, and an oblate rhombohedron has an obtuse angle at these vertices.

  4. Crystal system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_system

    Crystals can be classified in three ways: lattice systems, crystal systems and crystal families. The various classifications are often confused: in particular the trigonal crystal system is often confused with the rhombohedral lattice system, and the term "crystal system" is sometimes used to mean "lattice system" or "crystal family".

  5. Physiological cross-sectional area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physiological_cross...

    The muscle cross-sectional area (blue line in figure 1, also known as anatomical cross-section area, or ACSA) does not accurately represent the number of muscle fibers in the muscle. A better estimate is provided by the total area of the cross-sections perpendicular to the muscle fibers (green lines in figure 1).

  6. Muscle architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscle_architecture

    The parallel muscle architecture is found in muscles where the fibers are parallel to the force-generating axis. [1] These muscles are often used for fast or extensive movements and can be measured by the anatomical cross-sectional area (ACSA). [3] Parallel muscles can be further defined into three main categories: strap, fusiform, or fan-shaped.

  7. Orthorhombic crystal system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthorhombic_crystal_system

    In crystallography, the orthorhombic crystal system is one of the 7 crystal systems. Orthorhombic lattices result from stretching a cubic lattice along two of its orthogonal pairs by two different factors, resulting in a rectangular prism with a rectangular base ( a by b ) and height ( c ), such that a , b , and c are distinct.

  8. Anthropometry of the upper arm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropometry_of_the_upper_arm

    The derived measures include the (mid-)upper arm muscle area ((M)UAMA), the (mid-)upper arm fat area ((M)UAFA), and the arm fat index. Although they are not directly convertible into measures of overall body fat weight and density, and research has questioned the connection between skinfold fat and deep body fat measurements, these measures are ...

  9. Modiolus (face) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modiolus_(face)

    There are no precise histological boundaries because the modiolus is an irregular zone where dense, compact, interlacing tissue grades into the stems of individually recognizable muscles. It is contributed to by at least nine muscles: orbicularis oris , buccinator , levator anguli oris , depressor anguli oris , zygomaticus major , zygomaticus ...
