  2. Metal matrix composite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_matrix_composite

    Ford offers a Metal Matrix Composite (MMC) driveshaft upgrade. The MMC driveshaft is made of an aluminum matrix reinforced with boron carbide, allowing the critical speed of the driveshaft to be raised by reducing inertia. The MMC driveshaft has become a common modification for racers, allowing the top speed to be increased far beyond the safe ...

  3. 2-Methylmethcathinone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Methylmethcathinone

    2-Methylmethcathinone (2-MMC), also known as ortomephedrone is a recreational designer drug with stimulant and euphoric effects. It is a substituted cathinone derivative, closely related to better known drugs such as 3-methylmethcathinone and 4-methylmethcathinone (mephedrone).

  4. Static synchronous compensator - Wikipedia

    MMC topology for a single phase, with a DC bus. The diagram shows switches, which would be replaced with some type of IGBT arrangement in a VSC. While adding phase shifting to three-level converters improves harmonic performance, it comes at the cost of adding 2, 3 or even 4 additional STATCOMs.

  5. Migrating motor complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Migrating_motor_complex

    Migrating motor complex, also known as migrating myoelectric complex, migratory motor complex, migratory myoelectric complex and MMC, is a cyclic, recurring motility pattern that occurs in the stomach and small bowel during fasting; it is interrupted by feeding. [1]

  6. SCSI Multimedia Commands - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCSI_Multimedia_Commands

    SCSI Multimedia Commands (MMC) is a standard defining a SCSI/ATAPI based command set for accessing and controlling optical disc readers/writers (any device of type 05h). Thus, optical drives for the compact disc , DVD , and Blu-ray disc fall under this specification.

    [2] [5] [4] [13] [14] However, the aPTT-based APC resistance test is much less sensitive to the procoagulatory effects of estrogens than is the ETP-based test. [13] [14] [5] [4] [2] [15] Pregnancy [7] and ethinylestradiol (EE)-containing combined birth control pills increase APC resistance as measured by either the aPTT- or ETP-based test.

    The vehicle is 5.16 metres (16.9 ft) in length and 2.48 metres (8 ft 2 in) in width. With a ground clearance of 0.33 metres (1 ft 1 in), it has a height of 2.63 metres (8 ft 8 in). [ 5 ] As the APC variant of the CVR(T) family, the FV103 has been used by small specialized groups such as mortar fire controller teams, anti aircraft teams and also ...

  9. Multi-level converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-level_converter

    A multi-level converter (MLC) or (multi-level inverter) is a method of generating high-voltage wave-forms from lower-voltage components. MLC origins go back over a hundred years, when in the 1880s, the advantages of DC long-distance transmission became evident.
