GC: n CT: Luminous flux is energy.The energy is the total amount of light energy radiated from a light source in all directions. The luminous flux is measured in lumens and is the parameter used to describe the “brightness” of a projector. One lumen is the Luminous Flux or expressed

GC: n CT: Machine learning is the science of getting computers to act without being explicitly programmed. In the past decade, machine learning has given us self-driving cars, practical speech recognition, effective web search, and a vastly improved understanding of the human genome. Machine learning is so pervasive today that

GC: n CT: Machine translation (MT) is the use of automated software that translates text without human involvement. Adaptive MT is a technology that learns and adjusts in real-time from human feedback. MT is based on probability—not meaning. It doesn’t understand the meaning or the context of what it’s translating.

GC: n CT: Fusion Reactors: Magnetic Confinement There are two ways to achieve the temperatures and pressures necessary for hydrogen fusion to take place: Magnetic confinement uses magnetic and electric fields to heat and squeeze the hydrogen plasma. The ITER project in France is using this method. Inertial confinement uses

GC: n CT: One of the greatest challenges facing energy harvesters is generating enough power for practical applications. One way to increase the output power is to harvest more than one type of energy. For example, although there are a variety of devices that harvest either mechanical energy or magnetic

GC: n CT: Malware creation is on the rise due to money that can be made through organized Internet crime. Originally malware was created for experiments and pranks, but eventually it was used for vandalism and destruction of targeted machines. Today, much of malware is created to make a profit

GC: n CT: The user interface is often used in the context of computer systems and electronic devices. The user interface of a mechanical system, a vechicle, or an industrial installation is sometimes referred to as the Human-Machine Interface (HMI). HMI is a modification of the original term Man-Machine Interface

GC: n CT: Manure application to agricultural land involves the addition of all the components of the manure to the soil. An appropriate balance should be maintained between agronomic requirements and negative environmental impacts. Negative impacts, that could be defined as soil pollution, have to do with the addition of

GC: n CT: Companies measure capacity in different ways using either the input, output or a combination of the two as the measure. For example, a recycling company calculates their capacity based on the amount of material they clear from the inbound trailers at their plant, while a textile company

GC: n CT: Mechanical energy is the energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion or due to its position. Mechanical energy can be either kinetic energy (energy of motion) or potential energy (stored energy of position). Objects have mechanical energy if they are in motion and/or

GC: n CT: Megawatt (MW) is a metric measurement unit of power. The megawatt is equal to one million watts S: http://www.aqua-calc.com/what-is/power/megawatt (last access: 23 December 2014) N: 1. 1900, from mega- (before vowels meg-, word-forming element often meaning “large, great,” but in precise scientific language “one million” (megaton, megawatt,

CG: n CT: Recent satellite observations have shown the existence of a persistent layer of light-scattering particles in the vicinity of the polar mesopause during the summer. The suggestion has been made that this layer consists of ice particles, and that noctilucent clouds are a sporadic manifestation of the layer near

CG: n CT: Interestingly, the mesopause can be regarded as a layer separating two distinct dynamical regions of the atmosphere: the termosphere, where atmospheric processes are governed primarily by external solor influences, and the mesosphere, which is influenced primarily by internal variability produced by upward propagating waves.

CG: n CT: Given the sheer volume of data that businesses handle today, metadata is indispensable. It enhances data accessibility, making it easier to navigate large data sets and convert raw information into actionable insights. For example, a retail business can use metadata to quickly find sales data for a

CG: n CT: To hear tech CEOs like Mark Zuckerberg or Satya Nadella talk about it, the metaverse is the future of the internet. Or it’s a video game. Or maybe it’s a deeply uncomfortable, worse version of Zoom? It’s hard to say. It’s been nearly six months since Facebook

CG: n CT: Most meteor showers are spawned by comets. As a comet orbits the Sun it sheds an icy, dusty debris stream along its orbit. If Earth travels through this stream, we will see a meteor shower. Although the meteors can appear anywhere in the sky, if you trace

GC: n CT: Methane (CO4) is the second most prevalent greenhouse gas emitted in the United States from human activities. In 2012, CO4 accounted for about 9% of all U.S. greenhouse gas emissions from human activities. Methane is emitted by natural sources such as wetlands, as well as human activities

GC: n CT: This study attempted to investigate the feasibility of volatile fatty acid (VFA) production from coffee pulp hydrolyse, and further to determine the potential of methanization of both the pre-acidified effluent and the coffee wastewater. The experiments were carried out in 2 completely mixed reactors, each one with

See anaerobic digester

GC: n CT: Methanogenesis, or biomethanation, is a form of anaerobic respiration that uses carbon as the terminal electron acceptor, resulting in the production of methane. The carbon is sourced from a small number of low molecular weight organic compounds, such as carbon dioxide, acetic acid, formic acid (formate), methanol,

GC: n CT: Methanol, also known as methyl alcohol, wood alcohol, or wood spirits, is often abbreviated as MeOH. It is the simplest alcohol, and is a light, volatile, colourless, flammable liquid with a distinctive odour. At room temperature it is a polar liquid. MeOH is miscible with water, petrol

GC: n CT: A microchip is a small semiconductor used to relay information via specific electrical characteristics. In some cases, the term can be used interchangeably with integrated circuit. The microchip is at the heart of many electronics, including computers, cell phones and even microwave ovens. The first microchip is
