Entrainment (hydrodynamics), the movement of one fluid by another; Entrainment (meteorology), a phenomenon of the atmosphere; Entrainment (physical geography), the process by which surface sediment is incorporated into a fluid flow; Entrainment (physics), the process whereby two interacting oscillating systems assume the same period
In engineering, entrainment is the entrapment of one substance by another substance. [1] For example: The entrapment of liquid droplets or solid particulates in a flowing gas, as with smoke. The entrapment of gas bubbles or solid particulates in a flowing liquid, as with aeration.
In the study of chronobiology, entrainment refers to the synchronization of a biological clock to an environmental cycle. An example is the interaction between circadian rhythms and environmental cues, such as light and temperature. Entrainment helps organisms adapt their bodily processes according to the timing of a changing environment. [1]
Front-end loading (FEL), also referred to as Front-End Engineering Design (FEED), Front End Planning (FEP), pre-project planning (PPP), and early project planning, is the process for conceptual development of projects in processing industries such as upstream oil and gas, petrochemical, natural gas refining, extractive metallurgy, waste-to-energy, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals.
All of the mechanisms of light-affected entrainment are not yet fully known, however numerous studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of light entrainment to the day/night cycle. Studies have shown that the timing of exposure to light influences entrainment; as seen on the phase response curve for light for a given species. In diurnal (day ...

This ability to align behaviors such as feeding and activity to the external environmental cycle is a process called entrainment. [ 5 ] Biological rhythms , including cycles related to sleep and wakefulness, mood, and cognitive performance, are synchronized with the body's internal circadian clock . [ 6 ]
