Sweat is fluid secreted onto the skin by sweat glands. Evaporation can remove heat, but fluid remaining on the surface does not provide the same cooling as fluid that evaporates. Composition and secretion rate also affect water and electrolyte losses.

The tractoid is the surface of revolution of a unit tractrix. For $X(\theta ,v)=(h(\theta ),\sin \theta \cos v,\sin \theta \sin v)$ with $0<\theta <\pi /2$, its coordinate tangent vectors are orthogonal and have squared lengths ${\cot }^2\theta ,{\sin }^2\theta$. The coordinates $x=v$, $y=\csc \theta$ transform this first fundamental form into $(d{x}^2+d{y}^2)/y^2$, giving a local isometry to the hyperbolic plane. Thus its Gaussian curvature is minus one. The angular coordinate is periodic globally, while its unwrapped coordinate is a real variable; this distinguishes the local metric identification from a global embedding of the whole hyperbolic plane.

The trochlea of superior oblique is a pulley-like structure in the anterosuperomedial orbit. It redirects the tendon of the superior oblique muscle. The redirection explains why the muscle’s effective pull differs from a straight line between its belly and the eyeball.

A smoothed form of the summatory totient function satisfiesUse the Dirichlet series $\zeta (s-1)/\zeta (s)$ and the kernel $x^s/[s(s+1)]$ to write the left side as a vertical contour integral. Move the line from real part greater than two to $3/2$. The only crossed pole is at two, with residue $x^3/(6\zeta (2))=x^3/{\pi }^2$; the remaining vertical integral is $O(x^{5/2})$ by the standard zeta bounds in the half-strip. If $A(x)={\sum }_{n\le x}\phi (n)$ and $S(x)={\int }_0^{x}A(t)dt$, positivity of the summands makes $A$ nondecreasing. The backward and forward difference quotients of $S$ bound $A(x)$. Insert $S(x)\sim x^3/{\pi }^2$, then let the relative difference-quotient step tend to zero, proving the displayed asymptotic. This monotone integral Tauberian lemma justifies the passage from a smoothed estimate to an unsmoothed one.

Suicidal ideation refers to thoughts about or consideration of suicide. Thoughts, intent and behavior are related but distinct measurements; the presence of one does not uniquely specify the others.^[ref]

In research, the wording of questions and the period being assessed affect what is counted. A lifetime measure and a report about the past week answer different questions and should not be treated as interchangeable prevalence estimates.

Effective pressure is ice-overburden pressure minus water pressure beneath the ice. It controls creep closure of channels and cavities; smaller positive $N$ weakens that closure and favors separation of ice from bed obstacles. It is therefore central to both basal sliding and subglacial drainage.

Frictional dissipation of water flow melts a channel's ice walls, while ice creep under effective pressure in subglacial drainage closes them. The resulting equilibrium has increasing effective pressure with discharge in the basic channel theory. A route gaining water can lower its water pressure and attract further discharge, widening at the expense of neighbors. This positive redistribution feedback produces arterial drainage.

Sliding opens water-filled cavities behind bed obstacles and ice creep closes them; narrow connections allow drainage between cavities. In a decreasing effective-pressure/discharge relation, a route carrying extra flux needs higher water pressure. That pressure diverts water to neighboring routes, favoring a distributed network instead of concentration into one channel.

At fixed total discharge $Q_R+Q_K$, remove a small amount $\epsilon$ from a channel and send it through connected cavities. The equilibrium channel effective pressure drops by $N_R^{\prime }\epsilon$, while the cavity pressure difference drops by $|N_K^{\prime }|\epsilon$. Under the displayed inequality the cavity system leaves a common effective pressure higher than the reduced-flux channel can sustain. Excess creep closure then decreases channel discharge further, amplifying the perturbation.

A glacial lake outburst flood is rapid release of water stored in or behind glacial ice or its associated dam. Melt-driven enlargement of a subglacial channel can create positive feedback between discharge, frictional heating and further channel opening. Lake depletion and pressure-dependent material creep closure then alter the event. Channel models explain one mechanism and should not be taken as a universal description of every glacial flood.

The water pressure at a glacier-bed interface affects the effective normal pressure $N$, the difference between ice overburden pressure $p_i$ and water pressure $p_w$. Higher water pressure at fixed overburden reduces effective compression of the bed contact and can alter cavitation and basal resistance. It is not identical to basal shear stress, and a sliding law depending only on shear suppresses this independent hydraulic influence.

The left subclavian vein returns blood from the left upper limb and joins the left internal jugular vein. The neighboring jugulosubclavian region also receives major lymphatic return. Shared location connects distinct venous and lymphatic transport pathways.

A predicate on possibly partial lists is admissible when it holds at the limit of every increasing chain of finite approximations on which it holds. Increasing here means replacing a bottom value by more defined information while retaining already defined constructors and values. This closure condition permits a property established for finite approximations to pass to an infinite list. The predicate “the list is finite” lacks this closure: every finite prefix ending in an undefined tail is finite in extent, but their limit may have infinitely many constructors.

For an admissible predicate on lazy lists $P$, prove $P(\perp )$ and $P([])$, and prove $P(xs)\Rightarrow P(x:xs)$ for every possibly partial head $x$. Constructor induction then establishes $P$ on every finite partial approximation, and admissibility extends it to limits, including infinite lists. Without the bottom value case and the limit condition, ordinary finite structural induction does not justify a claim about infinite data.^[ref]

With fixed endpoint values on a finite interval, the displayed derivative coercivity makes a finite-energy strong local minimizer of a variational integral also a local minimizer in $L^1$. Otherwise choose better competitors converging in $L^1$. The upper energy bound controls their derivatives in $L^p$, and a common endpoint controls their function norms. Compact Sobolev embedding gives a uniformly convergent subsequence; its limit is the $L^1$ limit. This contradicts strong local minimality. Convexity of the integrand is unnecessary for this neighborhood-transfer argument.

A comparison of strings that disregards a chosen distinction between uppercase and lowercase characters. A simple convention compares characterwise lowercase forms. Full Unicode case folding is a distinct normalization operation and can change character counts.

A strange nonchaotic attractor combines geometrically irregular attraction with no positive Lyapunov exponent for the dynamics under consideration. Systems driven at two incommensurate frequencies supplied the original examples.^[ref]

One useful framework is a skew productThe base is an irrational rotation of the circle. An attracting invariant graph of a skew product obeys $h(\theta +\omega )=F_{\theta }(h(\theta ))$; the geometric question concerns how irregular that graph is. For a differentiable one-dimensional fiber map, the fiber Lyapunov exponent along it is, when the limit exists,A negative value describes average contraction of perturbations within the fiber. The base rotation has a neutral exponent, so a negative fiber exponent does not mean that every exponent of the full forced system is negative. Under appropriate boundedness and integrability assumptions for this triangular derivative system, the full largest exponent is zero rather than positive.

These equations specify a framework, not a claim that every choice of $F_{\theta }$ produces a strange attractor. For instance, $F_{\theta }(x)=ax$ with $|a|<1$ has the smooth attracting graph $h=0$. A negative fiber exponent alone therefore establishes neither geometric strangeness nor a discontinuous graph.

Elastic strain is the reversible part of strain that determines stress through the elastic constitutive equation. In a small-strain model with plastic and thermal effects, subtract the plastic strain and thermal strain from total strain to obtain it. A stress-free heated body can therefore have nonzero total strain but zero elastic strain; after plastic loading, unloading can likewise remove elastic strain while leaving permanent deformation.

Doubling the volume of a unit cube requires constructing its new side length $\sqrt[3]{2}$. Its minimal polynomial $X^3-2$ is irreducible by Eisenstein's criterion at two, so this length has degree three. Every constructible number belongs to a finite tower of quadratic extensions, whose total degree is a power of two. The tower law for field extensions would force the degree three to divide that power of two, a contradiction. Thus no such straightedge and compass construction exists.

Consider the constructible angle whose cosine is $5/6$ and sine is $\sqrt{11}/6$. If one fifth of this angle were constructible, its cosine $c$ would satisfy the displayed polynomial, by the identity $\cos 5\theta =16{\cos }^5\theta -20{\cos }^3\theta +5\cos \theta$. The identity follows by taking the real part of $(\cos \theta +i\sin \theta {)}^5$ and substituting ${\sin }^2\theta =1-{\cos }^2\theta$.

The polynomial is irreducible by Eisenstein's criterion at five, so $c$ has degree five over the rational numbers. The initial angle field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{11})$ already has degree two, and adjoining any finite collection of constructible numbers gives total degree over the rational numbers a power of two. Such a field cannot contain the degree-five element $c$, by the tower law for field extensions. Hence this constructible angle cannot be divided into five equal angles by straightedge and compass construction. Some particular angles can be quintisected; the obstruction disproves a construction valid for all angles.
