  2. Polysulfated glycosaminoglycan - Wikipedia

    [3] [4] In vitro studies have shown it to inhibit the enzymes that degrade cartilage and bone, as well as suppress inflammation and stimulate the synthesis of replacement cartilage. While it can cause an increased risk of bleeding, it is relatively safe and has a high LD50. PSGAG is one of the most widely prescribed joint treatments for horses. [5]

    Acute use (13 days) yields a potency about 1.5× stronger than that of morphine and chronic use (7 days+) yields a potency about 2.5 to 5× that of morphine. Similarly, the effect of tramadol increases after consecutive dosing due to the accumulation of its active metabolite and an increase of the oral bioavailability in chronic use.

  4. Division by two - Wikipedia

    An orange that has been sliced into two halves. In mathematics, division by two or halving has also been called mediation or dimidiation. [1] The treatment of this as a different operation from multiplication and division by other numbers goes back to the ancient Egyptians, whose multiplication algorithm used division by two as one of its fundamental steps. [2]

  5. Division algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_algorithm

    Long division is the standard algorithm used for pen-and-paper division of multi-digit numbers expressed in decimal notation. It shifts gradually from the left to the right end of the dividend, subtracting the largest possible multiple of the divisor (at the digit level) at each stage; the multiples then become the digits of the quotient, and the final difference is then the remainder.

  6. Squaring the square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squaring_the_square

    The smallest square s 1 in R is surrounded by larger, and therefore higher, cubes. Hence the upper face of the cube on s 1 is divided into a perfect squared square by the cubes which rest on it. Let s 2 be the smallest square in this dissection. By the claim above, this is surrounded on all 4 sides by squares which are larger than s 2 and ...

  7. Square thread form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_thread_form

    The square thread form is a common screw thread profile, used in high load applications such as leadscrews and jackscrews. It gets its name from the square cross-section of the thread. [ 1 ] It is the lowest friction and most efficient thread form, but it is difficult to fabricate.

    [25] [26] The standard FIFA football pitch for international matches is 105 m (344 ft) long by 68 m (223 ft) wide (7,140 m 2 or 0.714 ha or 1.76 acres); FIFA allows for a variance of up to 5 m (16.4 ft) in length in either direction and 7 m (23.0 ft) more or 4 m (13.1 ft) less in width (and larger departures if the pitch is not used for ...

  9. Mean square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_square

    In mathematics and its applications, the mean square is normally defined as the arithmetic mean of the squares of a set of numbers or of a random variable. [ 1 ] It may also be defined as the arithmetic mean of the squares of the deviations between a set of numbers and a reference value (e.g., may be a mean or an assumed mean of the data), [ 2 ...
