A supporting electrolyte, also known as a background electrolyte, is a substance added to an electrochemical system to provide a stable ionic environment, which enhances the conductivity of the solution. It helps maintain a constant ionic strength and can mitigate potential variations in the charge distribution during electrochemical reactions.
"Chemical Vapor Deposition" (CVD) is a scientific journal that focuses on the field of chemical vapor deposition processes. CVD is a widely used method for producing thin films, coatings, and nanostructures by depositing material from a vapor phase onto a substrate.
Tetrathionate is a chemical compound that contains four sulfur atoms in its molecular structure. Its chemical formula is \( S_4O_6^{2-} \), and it is often encountered in the form of sodium tetrathionate (\( Na_2S_4O_6 \)) when it is in the salt form.
**Geotextiles** and **geomembranes** are both essential components used in civil engineering, environmental engineering, and construction, primarily in applications related to soil and water management, erosion control, and containment. ### Geotextiles Geotextiles are permeable fabrics that are used in association with soil to perform various functions. They are made from synthetic or natural fibers and can be either woven, non-woven, or knitted.
Peter Goldreich is an American astrophysicist best known for his contributions to the fields of planetary science, celestial mechanics, and astrophysics. He has made significant advancements in our understanding of planetary rings, the dynamics of planetary atmospheres, and the evolution of celestial objects. Goldreich is also known for his work on topics such as tidal forces and the stability of planetary orbits.
Thermal Integrity Profiling (TIP) is a method used primarily in civil engineering and construction to assess the integrity of concrete elements, particularly deep foundations like drilled shafts or bored piles. The technique leverages the heat generated during the hydration of concrete to create a temperature profile over time, which can provide insights into the quality and uniformity of the concrete placement.
A tunnel junction is a type of electronic junction that allows for quantum tunneling of charge carriers, typically electrons, between two conductive regions. It is characterized by the presence of a thin insulating barrier (often just a few nanometers thick) that separates two superconductors or a superconductor and a normal conductor.
The Warburg coefficient is a parameter used in electrochemistry, particularly in the context of mass transport and diffusion processes in electrochemical systems. It is often associated with the Warburg impedance, which describes how the impedance of an electrochemical system varies with frequency due to diffusion-limited processes. In essence, the Warburg coefficient quantifies the effect of diffusion on the overall impedance of an electrochemical cell.
The Computerized Approach to Residential Land Analysis refers to the utilization of computer technology and software to evaluate, analyze, and manage residential land for various purposes, such as urban planning, real estate development, property appraisal, and environmental assessment. This approach often involves the integration of Geographic Information Systems (GIS), remote sensing, and data analytics to gather, analyze, and visualize spatial data related to land use, zoning, demographics, infrastructure, and environmental features.

Wet storage stain, also known as "wet storage disease" or "blue stain," is a condition that affects wood, particularly lumber, when it becomes damp and is stored in conditions that promote moisture retention. This phenomenon typically occurs during the drying process or when lumber is improperly stored without adequate ventilation or moisture control. The main characteristics and effects of wet storage stain include: 1. **Discoloration**: Wood may develop dark streaks or patches, often blue or gray in color.
A working electrode is a critical component in electrochemical cells and devices, such as sensors and batteries. It is the electrode where the primary electrochemical reaction of interest occurs during an experiment or application. The working electrode interfaces with the electrolyte solution and facilitates the transfer of electrons between the electrode material and the electroactive species in the solution.

Electromagnetic components refer to devices or elements that make use of electromagnetic fields and phenomena. These components are integral to a wide array of technologies and applications in electronics, communications, power systems, and many other fields. Here are some common types of electromagnetic components: 1. **Inductors**: Devices that store energy in a magnetic field when electric current flows through them. They resist changes in current and are fundamental in filtering and tuning circuits.

Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculusArticles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
- a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
- a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.Figure 1. Screenshot of the "Derivative" topic page.
