  2. Bowditch effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowditch_effect

    The underlying cause of the Bowditch effect is an increase in the calcium concentration in the sarcoplasmic reticulum of cardiac muscle cells, and its increased release into sarcoplasm. [ 3 ] One of the explanations for an increase in the intracellular calcium concentration is the inability of the Na + /K + -ATPase to keep up with influx of ...

  3. Lissajous curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lissajous_curve

    Lissajous curves can also be generated using an oscilloscope (as illustrated). An octopus circuit can be used to demonstrate the waveform images on an oscilloscope. Two phase-shifted sinusoid inputs are applied to the oscilloscope in X-Y mode and the phase relationship between the signals is presented as a Lissajous figure.

  4. Myocardial contractility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myocardial_contractility

    Sensitizing troponin-C to the effects of calcium. Phosphorylating L-type calcium channels. This will increase their permeability to calcium, allowing more calcium into the myocyte cells, increasing contractility. An abrupt increase in afterload enhances myocardial contractility and prolongs systolic ejection time through the Anrep effect. This ...

    Fractional quantum Hall effect (physics) Franssen effect (acoustics) (sound perception) Franz–Keldysh effect (condensed matter) (electronic engineering) (electronics) (optics) (optoelectronics) Free surface effect (fluid mechanics) Front projection effect (film production) Fujiwhara effect (tropical cyclone meteorology) (vortices)

  6. Autoregulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autoregulation

    Homeometric autoregulation occurs independently of cardiomyocyte fiber length, via the Bowditch and/or Anrep effects. [7] Via the Bowditch effect, positive inotropy occurs secondary to an increased cardiac frequency. The exact mechanism for this remains unknown, but it appears to be the result of an increased exposure of the heart to ...

  7. End correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End_correction

    It looks contradictory but in real sense this equation is not accurate for all bore / pipe diameter. For example this is correct for G bass flute for 20mm bore diameter but as diameter increases then this equation have negative effect means length will reduce. The pipe wall thickness correction also need to be added here for accuracy.

  8. Lists of physics equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_physics_equations

    In physics, there are equations in every field to relate physical quantities to each other and perform calculations. Entire handbooks of equations can only summarize most of the full subject, else are highly specialized within a certain field. Physics is derived of formulae only.

  9. Relativistic Breit–Wigner distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relativistic_Breit–Wigner...

    It is most often used to model resonances (unstable particles) in high-energy physics. In this case, E is the center-of-mass energy that produces the resonance, M is the mass of the resonance, and Γ is the resonance width (or decay width), related to its mean lifetime according to τ = 1 / Γ. (With units included, the formula is τ = ħ / Γ.)
