    A restricted LoS can significantly affect an individual's ability to respond to balance control tests and react to perturbations. This reduction in LoS may be attributed to various factors, including weakness in ankle and foot muscles, musculoskeletal issues in the lower limbs, or an internal perception to resist larger displacements.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrophilic-lipophilic_balance

    Griffin's method for non-ionic surfactants as described in 1954 works as follows: = / where is the molecular mass of the hydrophilic portion of the molecule, and M is the molecular mass of the whole molecule, giving a result on a scale of 0 to 20. An HLB value of 0 corresponds to a completely lipophilic/hydrophobic molecule, and a value of 20 ...

  6. Hierarchy problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchy_problem

    Studying renormalization in hierarchy problems is difficult, because such quantum corrections are usually power-law divergent, which means that the shortest-distance physics are most important. Because we do not know the precise details of the quantum gravity, we cannot even address how this delicate cancellation between two large terms occurs ...

  7. Fracture mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fracture_mechanics

    Fracture mechanics is the analysis of flaws to discover those that are safe (that is, do not grow) and those that are liable to propagate as cracks and so cause failure of the flawed structure. Despite these inherent flaws, it is possible to achieve through damage tolerance analysis the safe operation of a structure.
