"Leigh Page" doesn’t refer to a widely recognized entity, person, or concept in popular culture, history, or current events as of my last knowledge update in October 2023. It could potentially be a name of a person, a brand, or a fictional character, but I would need more context to provide a specific answer. If you have additional information or if it's related to a particular field (like literature, music, etc.
Lawrence W. Jones may refer to several individuals, but without additional context, it's difficult to identify which specific person you are referring to. The name could belong to a scholar, business professional, artist, or public figure across various fields. If you have a specific context or notable achievement related to Lawrence W.
Transmission loss in duct acoustics refers to the reduction of sound energy as it travels through a duct system. It is an important factor in the design and analysis of HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) systems, as it quantifies how much sound generated within the duct or transmitted to adjoining spaces is attenuated as it passes through the duct system.
Uniform isomorphism is a concept from the field of uniform spaces, a generalization of topological spaces that provides a way to discuss uniform continuity and convergence. Uniform spaces allow us to study the properties of spaces in a way that captures the notion of "closeness" or "uniformity" without relying strictly on metrics.
The piezoresistive effect refers to the change in electrical resistance of a material when it is subjected to mechanical stress. This phenomenon is primarily observed in certain semiconductors and metals, where the resistance changes due to variations in carrier concentration or mobility caused by the applied stress.
The term "French geometers" generally refers to mathematicians and geometers from France who have made significant contributions to the field of geometry. French geometers have historically played a crucial role in the development of various branches of mathematics, especially geometry. Prominent figures in the history of French geometry include: 1. **René Descartes** - Known for Cartesian geometry, which involves the use of coordinate systems to describe geometric shapes algebraically.
Ursula Bassler is not a widely recognized figure in mainstream media or literature, as of my last knowledge update in October 2023. It's possible that she may be a person known in specific academic, artistic, or professional circles, or she could be a fictional character. If you provide more context or specify the domain (such as literature, academia, film, etc.
Catalytic activity is a measure of the effectiveness of a catalyst in speeding up a chemical reaction. The standard unit for catalytic activity is the **katal**. 1 katal is defined as the amount of catalyst that converts 1 mole of substrate per second under specified conditions (such as temperature, pressure, and concentration). In practice, catalytic activity can also be expressed in terms of other units, depending on the context and the specific reaction conditions.
The University of Utah School of Computing is an academic division within the University of Utah that focuses on computer science and computing education. Established in 1965, it is known for its research in various areas of computing, including computer graphics, artificial intelligence, human-computer interaction, and data science, among others. The School of Computing offers undergraduate and graduate degrees, including Bachelor of Science (BS), Master of Science (MS), and Ph.D. programs in computer science.
U-statistics are a class of statistics that are particularly useful for estimating parameters of a population based on a sample. They are constructed from random samples and are defined using a symmetric kernel, which is a function of the sample points. U-statistics are widely used in statistical inference, including hypothesis testing and confidence interval construction.
Friedrich Beck could refer to various subjects, but one of the most notable is Friedrich Beck, a German artist and architect known for his contributions to architecture and design. However, without more context, it's hard to provide a specific answer about who Friedrich Beck is or what you’re referring to, as there may be other individuals or references associated with that name.
Valery Golubkin does not appear to be widely recognized in public domains such as politics, entertainment, or academia as of my last knowledge update in October 2023. It is possible that he could be a private individual or a person of local significance.
Vasilii Iskovskikh is a mathematician known for his contributions to the field of topology, particularly in the area of algebraic topology. His work has focused on the properties and structures of topological spaces, and he has made significant contributions to the classification and study of various topological constructs.
The "Friendly Floatees" spill refers to a maritime incident that occurred in 1992 when a shipping container filled with thousands of plastic bath toys, including rubber ducks, frogs, and turtles, fell overboard from a cargo ship in the Pacific Ocean. Specifically, this incident happened when the ship, the *Ever Laurel*, encountered rough seas in the north Pacific, causing the container to break loose and spill its contents into the ocean.

Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project

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!
We have two killer features:
  1. 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-calculus
    Articles 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.
