    In a steam engine, cutoff is the point in the piston stroke at which the inlet valve is closed. On a steam locomotive, the cutoff is controlled by the reversing gear.. The point at which the inlet valve closes and stops the entry of steam into the cylinder from the boiler plays a crucial role in the control of a steam engine.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuck-at_fault

    The model assumes one line or node in the digital circuit is stuck at logic high or logic low. When a line is stuck, it is called a fault. Digital circuits can be divided into: Gate level or combinational circuits which contain no storage (latches and/or flip flops) but only gates like NAND, OR, XOR, etc. Sequential circuits which contain storage.

  4. Vapor quality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor_quality

    The quantitatively described steam quality (steam dryness) is the proportion of saturated steam in a saturated water/steam mixture. In other words, a steam quality of 0 indicates 100% liquid, while a steam quality of 1 (or 100%) indicates 100% steam. The quality of steam on which steam whistles are blown is variable and may affect frequency.

  5. Data-rate units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data-rate_units

    The ISQ symbols for the bit and byte are bit and B, respectively.In the context of data-rate units, one byte consists of 8 bits, and is synonymous with the unit octet.The abbreviation bps is often used to mean bit/s, so that when a 1 Mbps connection is advertised, it usually means that the maximum achievable bandwidth is 1 Mbit/s (one million bits per second), which is 0.125 MB/s (megabyte per ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_throttling

    without bandwidth throttling, a server could efficiently serve only 100 active TCP connections (100 MB/s / 1 MB/s) before saturating network bandwidth; a saturated network (i.e. with a bottleneck through an Internet Access Point) could slow down a lot the attempts to establish other new connections or even to force them to fail because of ...

  9. Oxygen saturation (medicine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_saturation_(medicine)

    Normal arterial blood oxygen saturation levels in humans are 96–100 percent. [1] If the level is below 90 percent, it is considered low and called hypoxemia . [ 2 ] Arterial blood oxygen levels below 80 percent may compromise organ function, such as the brain and heart, and should be promptly addressed.
