  2. Hip score - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hip_score

    The lower the score, the less the degree of dysplasia present. The minimum (best) score for each hip is zero, and the maximum (worst) is 53, giving a range for the total of 0 to 106. Each hip is scored separately under the BVA, so within the UK scores are usually displayed as two numbers separated by a forward slash (e.g. 2/6).

  3. Canine hip dysplasia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canine_hip_dysplasia

    This false joint is less stable with a reduced range of motion than a normal joint, causing an abnormal gait. Nevertheless, pain relief with adequate function can be achieved. The procedure can be performed in all dogs of all sizes, but there are usually better long-term success rates in smaller dogs less than 20 kg (44 lbs).

  4. Accelerometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerometer

    An accelerometer measures proper acceleration, which is the acceleration it experiences relative to freefall and is the acceleration felt by people and objects. [2] Put another way, at any point in spacetime the equivalence principle guarantees the existence of a local inertial frame, and an accelerometer measures the acceleration relative to that frame. [4]

  5. Inertial measurement unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_measurement_unit

    For example, if an IMU installed in an aeroplane moving along a certain direction vector were to measure a plane's acceleration as 5 m/s 2 for 1 second, then after that 1 second the guidance computer would deduce that the plane must be traveling at 5 m/s and must be 2.5 m from its initial position (assuming v 0 =0 and known starting position ...

  6. Proper acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proper_acceleration

    At low speeds these accelerations combine to generate a coordinate acceleration like a = d 2 x/dt 2, while for unidirectional motion at any speed a o 's magnitude is that of proper acceleration α as in the section above where α = γ 3 a when a g is zero. In general expressing these accelerations and forces can be complicated.

  7. Bite force quotient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bite_force_quotient

    It is a means for comparison, not an indicator of absolute bite force. In short, if an animal or species has a high BFQ this indicates that it bites hard for its size after controlling for allometry. Hite et al., [ 3 ] who include data from the widest range of living mammals of any bite force regression to date, produce from their regression ...

  8. Dogs don't actually age 7 times faster than humans, new study ...

    www.aol.com/lifestyle/dogs-dont-actually-age-7...

    Say you have a 4-year-old Labrador named Comet — with the new equation, Comet's real "dog age" would be slightly older than 53. The reason for the difference is actually pretty simple.

  9. Dog intelligence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog_intelligence

    Dog intelligence or dog cognition is the process in dogs of acquiring information and conceptual skills, and storing them in memory, retrieving, combining and comparing them, and using them in new situations. [1] Studies have shown that dogs display many behaviors associated with intelligence. They have advanced memory skills, and are able to ...
