Trichoptilosis (from the Greek τριχο- tricho-"hair" and the New Latin ptilosis "arrangement of feathers in definite areas" from the Greek πτίλον ptilon "feather"), schizotrichia, and informally split ends, is the splitting or fraying of the hair-shaft due to excessive heat and mechanical stress.

The bell is hollow and the damper cable is fixed internally to the distal end, which permits relative motion between the cable and damping weights. [7] To provide for greater freedom of motion, the weights may be partially slotted in the vertical plane, allowing the cable to travel outside the confines of the bell.

The split may be at one or at both ends of the MLT. If both ends of the link are split, the resulting topology is referred to as an "SMLT square" when there is no cross-connect between diagonally opposite aggregation switches, or an "SMLT mesh" when each aggregation switch has a SMLT connection with both aggregation switches in the other pair.
A dead end, also known as a cul-de-sac (/ ˈ k ʌ l d ə s æ k, ˈ k ʊ l-/; [1] French:, [2] lit. ' bag bottom ' [3]), a no-through road or a no-exit road, is a street with only one combined inlet and outlet. Dead ends are added to roads in urban planning to limit through-traffic in residential areas.
The dead-end elimination algorithm (DEE) is a method for minimizing a function over a discrete set of independent variables.The basic idea is to identify "dead ends", i.e., combinations of variables that are not necessary to define a global minimum because there is always a way of replacing such combination by a better or equivalent one.
