71Ising model — The Ising model, named after the physicist Ernst Ising, is a mathematical model in statistical mechanics. It has since been used to model diverse phenomena in which bits of information, interacting in pairs, produce collectiveeffects.Definition… …
72Electrowetting — The electrowetting behavior of mercury and other liquids on variably charged surfaces was probably first explained by Lipmann in 1875 and was certainly observed much earlier. Froumkin used surface charge to change the shape of water drops in 1936 …
73Aeroponics — is the process of growing plants in an air or mist environment without the use of soil or an aggregate medium. Aeroponic culture differs from both hydroponics and in vitro (Plant tissue culture) growing. Unlike hydroponics, which uses water as a… …
74Lotus effect — The leaves of the sacred lotus flower (Nelumbo) are characterized by a very high water repellency (superhydrophobicity)cite journal | author = Lafuma, A. | coauthor = Quere, D. | year = 2003 | title = Superhydrophobic states | journal = Nature… …
75Electrospray — The name electrospray is used for a device that employs electricity to disperse a liquid or for the fine aerosol resulted in this process. The method is sometimes improperly called electrohydrodynamic atomization. High voltage is applied to a… …
76Bloodstain pattern analysis — (BPA) is one of several specialties in the field of forensic science. The use of bloodstains as evidence is not new; however, the application of modern science has brought it to a higher level. New technologies, especially advances in DNA… …
77Condensation in aerosol dynamics — Condensation can be summarized as a phase transition from a gas to a liquid as vapor condenses on a pre existing surface, the exact opposite of the transition from liquid to vapor which occurs in evaporation. Both condensation and evaporation are …
78Rainbow — For other uses, see Rainbow (disambiguation). Double rainbow and supernumerary rainbows on the inside of the primary arc. The shadow of the photographer s head on the bottom marks the centre of the rainbow circle (antisolar point). A rainbow is… …
79Nanopolymers — The word nano is derived from the Greek word for “dwarf”. It is the prefix for units of 10 9. In a nutshell, nanoscience is the study of the extremely tiny. Nanoscience is concerned with the study of the unique properties of matter at its nano… …
80reproductive system, plant — Introduction any of the systems, sexual or asexual, by which plants reproduce. In plants, as in animals, the end result of reproduction is the continuation of a given species, and the ability to reproduce is, therefore, rather conservative …
