  2. National Medical and Dental College Admission Test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Medical_and...

    Provincial medical entrance exams included the MDCAT conducted by the University of Health Sciences, Lahore in Punjab and Balochistan before the NMDCAT. It was implemented in 1998 as the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) on the initiative of the then chief minister of Punjab Mian Muhammad Shahbaz Sharif to counter replete cheating in HSSC exams at the time.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_College_Admission_Test

    In the 1920s, dropout rates in US medical schools soared from 5% to 50%, [11] leading to the development of a test that would measure readiness for medical school. Physician F. A. Moss and his colleagues developed the "Scholastic Aptitude Test for Medical Students" consisting of true-false and multiple choice questions divided into six to eight subtests.

  4. Organ flue pipe scaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organ_flue_pipe_scaling

    The system most commonly used to fully document and describe scaling was devised by Johann Gottlob Töpfer. [4] Since varying the diameter of a pipe in direct proportion to its length (which means it varies by a factor of 1:2 per octave) caused the pipes to narrow too rapidly, and keeping the diameter constant (a factor of 1:1 per octave) was ...

  5. Mill scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mill_scale

    Mill scale, often shortened to just scale, is the flaky surface of hot rolled steel, consisting of the mixed iron oxides iron(II) oxide (FeO, wüstite), iron(III) oxide (Fe 2 O 3, hematite), and iron(II,III) oxide (Fe 3 O 4, magnetite). Mill scale is formed on the outer surfaces of plates, sheets or profiles when they are produced by passing ...

    An example of the CPCs for an item with five categories, scored from 0 to 4, is shown in Figure 1. Figure 1: Rasch category probability curves for an item with five ordered categories. A given threshold partitions the continuum into regions above and below its location. The threshold corresponds with the location on a latent continuum at which ...

  7. Self-similar solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-similar_solution

    A powerful tool in physics is the concept of dimensional analysis and scaling laws. By examining the physical effects present in a system, we may estimate their size and hence which, for example, might be neglected. In some cases, the system may not have a fixed natural length or time scale, while the solution depends on space or time.

    Scaling of equation can be done, in a flow where inertia term is smaller than the viscous term i.e. when Re → 0 then inertia terms can be neglected, leaving the equation of a creeping motion. R e ∂ u ∗ ∂ t ∗ = − ∇ ∗ p ∗ + ∇ ∗ 2 u ∗ . {\displaystyle Re{\frac {\partial \mathbf {u^{*}} }{\partial t^{*}}}=-\nabla ^{*}p ...

  9. Hedonic scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedonic_scale

    The hedonic scale is a sensory evaluation tool used to measure the degree of pleasure or liking of a product or service. The scale usually consists of 9 levels ranging from 1 to 9, or "dislike extremely" to "like extremely". [1] The hedonic scale is widely used for consumer acceptance testing. [2] [3]
