  2. Electrical connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_connector

    [7]: 40 By definition, each end of this "adapter" has a different connection method – e.g. the solder tabs on a male phone connector, and the male phone connector itself. [3] In this example, the solder tabs connected to the cable represent the permanent connection, whilst the male connector portion interfaces with a female socket forming a ...

  3. List of hyperboloid structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_hyperboloid_structures

    This page is a list of hyperboloid structures. These were first applied in architecture by Russian engineer Vladimir Shukhov (1853–1939). Shukhov built his first example as a water tower ( hyperbolic shell ) for the 1896 All-Russian Exposition .

  4. Hyperboloid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperboloid

    A hyperboloid is the surface obtained from a hyperboloid of revolution by deforming it by means of directional scalings, or more generally, of an affine transformation. A hyperboloid is a quadric surface , that is, a surface defined as the zero set of a polynomial of degree two in three variables.

  5. Globally hyperbolic manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Globally_hyperbolic_manifold

    In mathematical physics, global hyperbolicity is a certain condition on the causal structure of a spacetime manifold (that is, a Lorentzian manifold). It is called hyperbolic in analogy with the linear theory of wave propagation, where the future state of a system is specified by initial conditions.

  6. Hyperboloid structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperboloid_structure

    Hyperboloid structures are architectural structures designed using a hyperboloid in one sheet. Often these are tall structures, such as towers, where the hyperboloid geometry's structural strength is used to support an object high above the ground. Hyperboloid geometry is often used for decorative effect as well as structural economy.

  7. On shell and off shell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_shell_and_off_shell

    Points on the hyperboloid surface (the "shell") are solutions to the equation. Mass shell is a synonym for mass hyperboloid, meaning the hyperboloid in energy–momentum space describing the solutions to the equation:

  8. Hyperbolic space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_space

    The -dimensional hyperbolic space or hyperbolic -space, usually denoted , is the unique simply connected, -dimensional complete Riemannian manifold with a constant negative sectional curvature equal to −1. [1]

  9. Human anatomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_anatomy

    Gross anatomy (also called topographical anatomy, regional anatomy, or anthropotomy) is the study of anatomical structures that can be seen by the naked eye. [1] Microscopic anatomy is the study of minute anatomical structures assisted with microscopes , which includes histology (the study of the organization of tissues), [ 1 ] and cytology ...
