  2. Massing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massing

    The creation of massing, and changes to it, may be additive (accumulating or repeating masses) or subtractive (creating spaces or voids in a mass by removing parts of it). [4] Massing can also be significantly altered by the materials used for the building's exterior, as transparent, reflective, or layered materials are perceived differently.

  3. Form (architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Form_(architecture)

    The relative importance of space and mass can change very quickly: in 1872, Viollet-le-Duc wrote his book, Entretiens sur l'architecture, completely avoiding the use of the word "space" in its modern meaning; just 20 years later August Schmarsow was declaring the primacy of German: Raumgestaltung, "forming the space".

  6. Air changes per hour - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_changes_per_hour

    Air changes per hour, abbreviated ACPH or ACH, or air change rate is the number of times that the total air volume in a room or space is completely removed and replaced in an hour. If the air in the space is either uniform or perfectly mixed, air changes per hour is a measure of how many times the air within a defined space is replaced each hour.

  7. Bulk density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulk_density

    For the wet bulk density (total bulk density) this sample is weighed, giving the mass M t. For the dry bulk density, the sample is oven dried and weighed, giving the mass of soil solids, M s. The relationship between these two masses is M t = M s + M l, where M l is the mass of substances lost on oven drying (often, mostly water). The dry and ...

  8. Volume (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_(thermodynamics)

    Specific volume is the volume occupied by a unit of mass of a material. [1] In many cases, the specific volume is a useful quantity to determine because, as an intensive property, it can be used to determine the complete state of a system in conjunction with another independent intensive variable. The specific volume also allows systems to be ...

    Decades of research on memory and recall have produced many different theories and findings on the spacing effect. In a study conducted by Cepeda et al. (2006) participants who used spaced practice on memory tasks outperformed those using massed practice in 259 out of 271 cases.
